Problem description

InstalSystem version 5 requires hardware of relatively high computing performance. The software tends to be slower on lower end machines. This is particularly apparent when large files are processed or when other applications run simultaneously. The scale of the problem also depends on the program functions and windows used.

A particular case in which the program may slow down is usage of complex DWG underlays containing a great number of layers and/or a lot of elements, and/or with large drawing dimensions.

Solution

Hardware recommendations

  • Verify that the computer meets Hardware requirements.
  • In the case of using laptop:
    • It is important to remember that since mobility and energy efficiency are priorities in laptops, the TDP coefficients are significantly lower than in desktop computers. The result is a clock speed reduction of processors or graphics cards when a certain temperature is exceeded, thus limiting the performance of the laptop and, accordingly, reducing the performance of the software.
    • Pay attention to the energy saving plan set in Windows, because by default it is usually set to balanced or energy saving mode. This can also significantly decrease the productivity.
    • When running on battery power alone, the default energy saving plan will almost certainly use only the integrated graphics card, which has much lower performance and reduces the clock speed.

Software recommendations

Underlay files

Aspects that can considerably affect the productivity of the program:

  • Using very large Underlay files,
  • Using Underlay files with a wide area (the building itself sometimes occupies only a a fragment of the Underlay area),
  • Using Underlay files with a very large number of objects (e.g., hatching).

To deal with this, we recommend to execute the following steps before performing the operation Import underlay to InstalSystem 5:

  • Trim the project file to the area that is needed for the work,
  • Clean the file of objects that negatively affect the performance of the program.

Settings and configuration

Underlay

  • Disable layers that are not required to be used in AUTO mode:
    • In the Data table / Layers for AUTO mode field,
      1. Layers for AUTO mode.

    • With the right mouse button, click on the layout element and choose Disable AUTO for layer: %s,
      2. Disable AUTO for layer: %s.

    • In the right mouse button menu select Disable AUTO for all layers.
      3. Disable AUTO for all layers.

  • Disable the visibility of unnecessary layers:
    • In the Data table / Visible layers field,
      4. Visible layers.

    • With the right mouse button, click on the layout element and choose Hide layer: %s,
      5. Hide layer: %s.

    • In the right mouse button menu select Hide all layers.
      6. Hide all layers.

  • Limit the visibility of the Underlay using the function Visible underlay area. For more information, see: Import underlay files

Reference point

Reference point on each Storey should be located close to the relevant object. For more information, see: Obtaining the correct mutual alignment of underlays on the individual storeys.




  • Close all windows that are not needed (particularly the resource-intensive module 3D view).
    1. 3D Editor

  • Hide editing scopes that are not used.
    2.Hide edit scopes.

  • Exit all applications and services running in the background that are not used at the moment.
