by first grouping devices by common Location codes and sequentially reports
each group’s inter-wiring. It then ties each common Location group together
with a single from/to wire connection. For wire connections with the same
Location group (or if all devices have the same Location value or no Location
value), AutoCAD Electrical attempts to sort the wire connections by physical
location on the drawing and report the from/to connections in that order.
NOTE You can keep jumpers from displaying in Wire From/To reports by placing
the jumpers on a layer that contains the substring "JUMPER."
AutoCAD Electrical provides several methods to more specifically define wire
connection sequencing.
NOTE You can run one or more sequencing methods simultaneously, even in the
same wire network, since there is a hierarchy of which methods takes precedence
over others.
Angled Tee Wire Connection Method
The use of angled tee wire connections can influence the wire connection
sequence reporting. Sequencing is defined by the tee symbol’s orientation (a
three-digit attribute value named WDWSEQ carried on the symbol). The 90
degree turn or the straight-through section (depending on the style of the
angled tee symbol) indicates the beginning of the sequence, while the 45
degree turn is the secondary connection. AutoCAD Electrical reports each wire
connection as it is shown.
This method of influencing from/to reporting may fail to give expected results
if the orientation and arrangement of multiple angled tee connection symbols
in a given network is ambiguous or if it defines more than two connected
wires to a given device’s wire connection point.
Set the automatic angled wire tee insert mode (instead of tee intersection dots)
in the Project Properties
➤
Styles dialog box.
NOTE Schematic wire sequencing and Direct-to-Terminal wire sequencing, if
present, overrides the Angled Tee connection sequencing.
Schematic Wire Connection Sequence Method
This involves touching the connection sequence for each wire network
containing three or more interconnected components. AutoCAD Electrical
places an incrementing connection sequence value on each wire connection
point (saved as a three-digit Xdata value, starting with “001” on the wire
