The base wire is determined in one of two ways:
■ The base wire is the marker block that has a MISC1 attribute with a value
of "_BASE".
■ If no MISC1 attribute has a “_BASE” value, the underlying wire that comes
closest to being colinear with the insertion point of the template is the
one that becomes the base wire.
A template can carry multiple groups of marker blocks indicating that the
underlying bus wires should auto-adjust. The CODE value can be the same
for all groups, but each group must have its own ORDER value.
Define the wire type
There are three ways to define the wire type.
■ On the marker block for the wire in the circuit template.
■ In the Circuit Builder spreadsheet circuit codes sheet.
■ Based on motor size selection.
NOTE The attribute value defined on the marker block overrides any value defined
in the spreadsheet.
Marker block method
1 Open the circuit template drawing that contains the marker block for
the wire.
2 Find the correct marker block for the wire.
3 Edit its MISC1 attribute value using the format “_WIRETYPE={layer
name}”, for example, “_WIRETYPE=BRN_10AWG”.
