6.2 Technical text labels
The Technical Designation (TD) is a technical identifier that is used to identify the plant and associated
elements.
The structure of the TD is based on the hierarchical structure of the plant and its associated elements, e.g.:
● For primary plants with Desigo PX:
Site / Plant / Partial plant / Aggregate / Component / Pin
● For room automation plants with Desigo RX:
Site / Area / Subarea / Section / Room
● For room automation plants with Desigo room automation:
Building / Floor / Room / Room Segment / Functional Unit / Component / Pin
The text is based on designations in abbreviated form that are customary within the industry, e.g.:
GUB:AGeb6‘Ahu3St‘FanSu
= Gubelstreet facility / ventilation plans building 6 / Air handling third floor /
supply air fan
Technical designations are linguistically neutral (mnemonic). They are based on mnemonic texts set up in
the library, with additional project-specific details.
The TD is defined by Siemens. The User Designation (UD) can be defined by the customer.
