Insert a nameplate
Several generic, rectangular nameplates with stretchable boundaries are
provided. Three generic nameplates are shown on the top row of the sub-dialog
box. Each of these consists of a nested block, which AutoCAD Electrical
explodes and groups upon insertion. The rectangular outline of the resulting
nameplate can be stretched using AutoCAD Grips or the Stretch Window
command.
1 Click the Insert Footprint tool.
2 Select Nameplates from the list.
3 Select the desired nameplate from the sub-dialog box.
4 Pick the target footprint and press Enter.
To insert a stand-alone nameplate, simply press Enter without
first selecting a component.
5 Pick the insertion point and move your cursor to rotate the
nameplate to the desired alignment. Click the left mouse but-
ton to end the dynamic insertion.
6 Specify the nameplate tag, description, installation and loca-
tion codes, and catalog data in the Panel Layout - Nameplate
Insert/Edit dialog box.
AutoCAD Electrical immediately annotates the nameplate with
a copy of the description data that it finds carried on the
footprint (which is the same description that is found on the
schematic representation of the component).
7 Click OK to insert the nameplate.
TIP Use AutoCAD MOVE command to position the nameplate in relation to the
parent footprint.
