In the Din Rail dialog box, select one of these records as the Rail Type and
click OK. In the Panel Layout - Component Insert/Edit dialog box, Catalog
section, click Catalog Lookup. The Parts catalog dialog box now displays wire
ways with Manufacturer = PANDUIT and Type = Slotted. Select a suitable wire
way from the list.
Line properties
There may be times that you want to specify a color, linetype, or layer for a
particular line entity that makes up the Din Rail. You can do this with a few
optional spreadsheet fields. For the 2 end lines, you add 2 columns in your
spreadsheet, each called END_PROP. The first one is for the left end, the second
is for the right end. The format is COLOR colorname LAYER layername LTYPE
linetype. For example, COLOR 9 LAYER MISC LTYPE HIDDEN2. It is expecting
a single space between the values. If you leave the field blank, or leave out
one of the properties, it draws the lines using the current defaults. For the
channel lines, it works similarly, but the columns should be called
CHANNEL_PROP. Put them in the same order as the CHANNEL values. For
example, you want the inner lines to be font HIDDEN2 and the CHANNEL
columns are in this order, 0.69 0.49 -0.49 -0.69, this means the inner lines are
the second and third channel columns. So the CHANNEL_PROP columns are:
■ First column: leave blank
■ Second column LTYPE HIDDEN2
■ Third column: LTYPE HIDDEN2
■ Fourth column: blank
Use this field to define the properties for the end lines.END_PROP
