Round tap off of oval duct

(1/3) > >>

zmangerson:
I am trying to create a tap off of oval to round and am having trouble finding a CID that I can use to create such a part. Any ideas on which ones I could use?

VirtualPilot:
That's because you are probably looking at OVAL templates, look under ROUND templates, there are many, for example, we have Straight Taps, Conical Taps, Lateral Taps, Boot Taps, etc...

CIDs 875, 751, 871

zmangerson:
I am using CID#875 and using the attacher it inserts fine but I get an error message (see attachment), but it will not insert this tap inside of design line. Is there a setting I am not applying to the part that will allow it to be inserted in design line?

VirtualPilot:
I've never tried it in DL.... will test and see if I can get it to work in DL, but not sure if the program "knows" how to inset a round tap into oval, as the tap distance from center is figured from ROUND duct, NOT oval...

VirtualPilot:
Yeah, can't test this in DL, ours is set up to automatically add a OVAL TEE with ROUND tap...
