Insert a terminal strip table in multiple sections
A terminal strip table can be added through the Terminal Strip Editor or with
the Terminal Strip Table Generator tool. A terminal strip can be split into
multiple table sections by changing your table settings.
Terminal Strip Editor
1 Click Panel tab ➤ Terminal Footprints panel ➤ Editor.
2 Make your selection on the Terminal Strip Selection dialog box and click
Edit.
3 Click the Layout Preview tab.
4 Select Settings.
5 Enter the number of rows you want for each section. If the table break
falls between rows within one terminal definition, the entire terminal
definition is placed in the next table section. This results in a table section
with fewer rows than defined.
NOTE If the terminal definition is the first one in the section and exceeds the
number of rows per section, the entire terminal definition is kept together in
one section.
6 Specify how many table sections you want to place on each drawing.
Unless you insert all the sections on the active drawing, new drawings
are created for the table sections.
7
Specify the X and Y placement or select the Pick Point button to
pick a point on the drawing. This value is used for the first table section
on each drawing.
8 Specify the distance you want between each section if you are placing
more than one section per drawing.
9 Specify the direction to place each section after the first table section.
10 Specify the offset base point. This option indicates whether you want the
distance value measured from insertion point to insertion point, or the
gap between the sections.
