NOTE The MISC1 attribute value can contain multiple special text flags which
direct Circuit Builder to handle the component or underlying wire in a special
way. When you add new values, do not overwrite any other special flag values.
Separate each one with a semicolon.

Spreadsheet method
1 Open the Circuit Builder spreadsheet, ace_circuit_builder.xls.
2 Find the circuit CATEGORY and TYPE, for example CATEGORY: 3ph
Motor Circuit and TYPE: Horizontal - FVNR - non reversing.
3 Open the circuit code sheet with the same name as the SHEET_NAME
value, for example SHEET_NAME: 3ph_H.
4 Find the specific wire, for example CODE: WT01, and COMMENTS: Assign
motor wire type - phase 1.
5 Edit the API call in the COMMAND_LIST column for this wire. For
example, the last argument of this Set Wire type API call is used to
predefine MISC1 coded values with nil when nothing extra is defined.
Before and after are shown:
Before: (c:ace_cb_set_wiretype #data 1 nil nil)
After:(c:ace_cb_set_wiretype #data 1 nil
“_WIRENUMBERS=0;_WIRETYPE=BRN_10AWG”)
■ _WIRENUMBERS=0 defines the layer as No Wire Numbering. Any
wire without this flag is created as a normal wire numbering layer by
default.
NOTE This flag applies only if the wire layer does not exist and is created
when the circuit is inserted.
■ _WIRETYPE=BRN_10AWG defines the layer name.
NOTE See the API documentation for more information.
