NOTE The component tag suffix is automatically
added to the end of the tag. You can force AutoCAD
Electrical to insert the suffix character somewhere
within the tag format. Use the Suffix position para-
meter, %X, in the component tag format (for ex-
ample, %N%X - %F).
Displays the suffix list. The individual items in the
suffix list are given in the row of edit boxes across
Suffix Setup
the top of the dialog box. List suffix characters for
duplicate family components on the same line refer-
ence or in the same zone (to keep tags unique). The
suffix is added to the end of the component tag. To
add it to the inside of the tag, use "%X" in the Tag
Format. Example:
%N-%F or %N-%F%X = suffix at the end (such as
101-CRA)
%N%X-%F = add to number, before family code
(such as 101A-CR)
Select from the default lists or manually enter your
own suffix list in the row of edit boxes.
Component TAG Options
Uses the combined installation/location tag for inter-
preting component tag names. For example, -100CR
Combined Installation/Location tag mode
relay contact marked with location code PNL1 is in-
terpreted as being associated with a different relay
coil than relay contact -100CR marked with location
code PNL2. If this setting is not selected, both con-
tacts are associated with the same parent relay coil,
-100CR.
Suppresses any single-dash character prefix in an IEC
tag that does not have a leading Installation/Location
Suppress dash when first character of tag
prefix. (For example, "-K101" dash is suppressed to
"K101" but "+LOC1-K101" remains unchanged.)
When switched OFF, it automatically adds a single
dash character to an IEC tag that does not already
have a single leading dash prefix. It also does not
have a leading Installation/Location prefix. (For ex-
