Systems‌ ‌control‌ ‌engineering‌ ‌is‌ ‌a‌ ‌complex‌ ‌field‌ ‌and‌ ‌control‌ ‌engineering‌ ‌projects‌ ‌often‌ ‌require‌ multiple‌ ‌models‌ ‌and‌ ‌multiple‌ ‌documents.‌ ‌
Often‌ ‌these‌ ‌artifacts‌ ‌appear‌ ‌as‌ ‌single‌ ‌files‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ file‌ ‌system,‌ ‌on‌ ‌external‌ ‌devices‌ ‌or‌ ‌within‌ ‌a‌ ‌version‌ ‌control‌ ‌system.‌
A systems control model often does not exist on its own. E.g. the model developer creates the model and writes a documentation about its behavior.
Other users need that documentation when using the models to understand the underlying concepts, parameters, etc.
The itemis Model Viewer, formerly known as YAKINDU Model Viewer, addresses these tasks with two features:

  • Create hyperlinks between model elements and documentation sections that can be followed in both directions
  • Create bundles of all associated models and documentation documents that belong to a certain project or project state
