1.3.2 Creating networks and stations
There are two ways of creating networks and stations in the network configuration:
● Double-clicking on a catalog entry creates the required object at a free position in the
project area.
● Dragging a catalog entry to the project area places the object at the required position.
The position of inserted objects can be changed at any time by dragging them with the
mouse.
The following figure shows a project after adding several stations and networks.
