Reusing graphics on other devices
Reusing graphics on other Desigo Control Point devices
Graphics with relative binding can be reused on other Desigo Control Point devices that have the same or
similar applications.
● Relative by Tags binding is recommended for all supported standard applications because semantic tags
are automatically applied during data point integration.
● Always use semantic tags that follow the Haystack conventions when creating relativized graphics.
Data point binding [➙ 59]
● All graphics in the supersample graphics library use relative binding. Refer to these graphics to create your
own graphic that contains a superset of the components in your system.

Reusing graphics on devices with non-standard applications
Semantic tags are not automatically applied to BACnet devices or devices with non-standard applications. In
this case, Relative by navName binding is recommended.
Using Relative by navName binding [➙ 64]
Use the following procedure to re-bind a graphic after it is imported to a new Desigo Control Point device.
1. Open the EQUIPMENTS pane.
2. Drag-and-drop the appropriate data points to re-bind them to the graphic components.
An absolute binding is created, which adapts the graphic to the structure of the new application.
3. Do the following for each component and smart label in the graphic:
