Wildcard mapping for catalog database tables is allowed on the source (left)
database side of the mapping file. For example, TD*=TD. When the table or
wildcard mapping is used and the source database table is component-specific,
the merge utility places the table name into the WDBLKNAM field of the
destination database. It provides the symbol name for the initial filter used
in the catalog lookup window.
Table mapping files for footprint lookup database merges
A mapping file for the footprint lookup database
(ACEDBMergeUtil_footprint_lookup.map) is provided. This file follows the
same rules as the mapping file for catalog merges (ACEDBMergeUtil.map). No
rules are predefined in this mapping file. The file ia a framework that needs
to be modified to provide customized merges.
NOTE The default file location is C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AcadE {version}\. See
the file for further instructions on how to format and construct the mapping strings.
PLC Database
The Spreadsheet to PLC/IO utility uses the module category to calculate the
insertion point of a module.
■ Input module - inserted near the right or bottom bus line of the ladder.
■ Output module - inserted near the left or top bus line of the ladder.
■ Combination module - inserted centered between the bus lines of the
ladder.
Before AutoCAD Electrical 2009, the Spreadsheet to PLC/IO utility determined
the module category based on the value in the DESCRIPTION field or the PLC
database table name. For example, if the DESCRIPTION field contained the
string “*IN*”, it was considered an input module. In AutoCAD Electrical 2009
and later, the PLC database contains a CATEGORY field. If the PLC database
