so i have some small problems. @4:44 i can't change the PLC adress numbering method, it doesn't allow me to make the change. and i think that is why @8:30 the numbering doesn't work automaticly work and @8:53 i cant select the PLC adress.
Auto numbering for the PLC is limited to the standard and advanced level packages, could it be that you're working with the basic level? A neat workaround is to open a spreadsheet to quickly generate a sequence of addresses, copy (Ctrl+C), then paste (Ctrl+V) the 4/8/16/32 addresses while the first address is selected in the Component Properties dialog for the PLC Main.
Hello, I would like to ask you how is possible to make reference and comments/description for the PLC signal in one line, like 'Merge' in Components? For example: 'ChannelDescription =FF01\+S1\ 25.6 ' on the corresponding PLC main view?
Its a good idea so I'll submit this to the development team as an enhancement. At the moment its not possible to merge attributes together on a symbol.
Hello, I would like to ask you how is possible to create a single-line cable from multiple wires. Let's say 3 wires from the terminal creates a 3 cores cable. I saw the function multicore but I am not sure how is possible to work with this. Can you give me some ideas? Thank you!
OK so there is an advanced level function called Multicore which allows a single wire to be marked as having multiple cores. This can then be edited using the Multicore properties and each separate core defined by its connection at each end, color and size. This doesn't however allow a fan out of wires at either end. This isn't possible unless custom cable symbols are designed, with a gap between the 2 connection points, which is filled in with your preferred cable fan graphics.
Many thanks for the feedback. We're glad you found it useful. Creating PLC devices to make the most of See Electricals functionality takes a bit more consideration than most other symbols.
