Level code/location
Controls whether the Level 1 edit box displays the 3-digit level code assignment
or the device's LOC attribute value. This location display mode is for display
purpose only. The underlying 3-digit Level 1 code is always used for the sorting
installation.
Pick
Selects another panel layout footprint symbol or terminal strip representation
on the active drawing and copies its settings over to the currently edited
component
Bypass terminal strips
Controls this component's wiring bypass of one or more level categories of
supplementary terminal strips. For example, special signal wiring passes from
the currently edited component to some other components in a different
cubical/unit/ship split section. To disable any supplementary terminal strip
connections that might automatically be included in the from/to calculations
between this edited component and other connected components identified
in other level assignment combinations, switch all four bypass options on.
Sequence on Level 1
Influences the wire connection sequencing of the schematic components
whose physical footprints share the same combination of four level category
assignments. The sequence assignment is a 4-digit number (for example, 0001,
0002, and so on) and is sorted to give a default wire connection sequence.
For example, all of the pushbutton and pilot light footprint representations
on a door layout carry the same Level 1 through Level 4 category code
assignments, but carry sequence value assignments that increase from left to
right and top to bottom on the layout. This means that AutoCAD Electrical
calculates the from/to connections for a common wire starting at the top left
and leaving the door at the component located in the bottom right-hand
corner.
