Error: Connection Already Exists in the Library When Creating New Connections
When creating new connections such as Tube, Pipe, or Hose, the program may display an error stating that the connection already exists in the library. This can occur even if you’ve entered some different values, as the system checks for specific property combinations.
For Tube and Pipe:
This error occurs if the following three properties match exactly with an existing connection:
Pressure
Nominal Size
Material
To successfully create a new Tube or Pipe connection, at least one of these properties must be different.
For Hose:
The error will appear if both the Nominal Size and Pressure match an existing hose.
To avoid this, either the Nominal Size or the Pressure must be different.
To avoid this, either the Nominal Size or the Pressure must be different.
