connection attribute). When any of the AutoCAD Electrical From/To reports
processes wire networks containing this incrementing sequencing data, the
from/to wire connections order accordingly.
NOTE Schematic wire connection and Direct-to-Terminal sequencing methods
on a given wire network take precedence over all other sequencing methods. For
example, if a wire network is sequenced with the Edit Wire Sequence tool, the
sequencing influence normally provided by angled tee marker symbols used in
the wire network is overridden.
Direct-to-Terminal Wire Connection Sequence Method
This defines additional Direct-to-Terminal wire connection sequences. For
example, one side of a schematic terminal might be connected to three devices.
A specific wire connection sequence (using the Schematic Wire Connection
sequence method above) can be defined to force the connection reporting
but it is limited to reporting the terminal as a common connection point
between only two of the three devices. The third device would default to being
reported as jumpered to one of the other two devices. Additional secondary
Direct-to-Terminal sequences can be defined so that the third device can be
sequenced directly to the terminal (you can also directly sequence two
terminals together). The result is that the From/To connection reporting shows
all three devices tied directly to the terminal.
NOTE The limit of Direct-to-Terminal sequences that you can define in a single
wire network is 50.
Level/Routing Method
This brings the panel layout into play to affect the reporting sequence in the
various From/To reports. The panel layout or panel wiring diagram layout
representations are assigned level/routing codes consisting of a four-level
hierarchy plus a sequence number. As schematic wire networks are processed
for the From/To reports, the existence of panel layout representations that are
marked with level/routing values is checked. If this information is found for
all the devices of the network being processed, the network's connections are
sorted by this hierarchy and sequence information. The result is a set of
From/To reported connections that follow the level/routing data carried by
the layout.
NOTE Schematic wire sequencing and Direct-to-Terminal wire sequencing, if
present, override the influence of Level/Routing sequencing.
