Dialog Full DT

In this dialog, you can assign a different structure identifier to the identifier blocks contained in the device tag, and edit the default settings for the display.

Overview of the main dialog elements:

Displayed DT:

This field shows the DT as it is displayed in the schematic according to the entries in the fields of this dialog. As soon as you edit this entry, the entries in the other fields will automatically be updated.

Full DT:

This field shows the full DT as it is defined according to the entries in the fields of this dialog. This field cannot be edited.


Structure identifiers:

Depending on the project structure the table displays the structure identifiers of the placed component which can be edited. EPLAN generally adopts the Device structure that you have defined in the project properties of the project. If the device structure conforms to the page structure, the fields display the structure identifiers of the page on which the placed component is located.

Note:

The preceding signs and separators between the individual structure identifiers can not be edited here. They originate from the settings of the Extended project structures dialog, which you open in the Structure tab of the project properties by clicking [Other].


Editing fields for the DT

Depending on the settings for the project structure, different editing fields are displayed for the DT:

Note:

To be able to use the extended reference identification, the Extended reference identification check box must be activated in the Structure tab of the project properties.

If you have additionally determined that the product aspect is to be used for structuring (by means of the corresponding check box in the Display tab of the Extended project structures dialog), the table for the DT is hidden and the product aspect shown in the Structure identifiers table.

The group boxes or the table allow for entries in the following fields:

Prefix:

These fields can be used to enter or change a prefix digit for the device and subordinate devices.

Concerning fluid devices with an identifier structure according to DIN ISO 1219-2, this field must remain empty.

Identifier:

These fields can be used to enter or change the identifier for the item designation (according to DIN) of the device and subordinate devices.

Concerning fluid devices with an identifier structure according to DIN ISO 1219-2, this field is designated Media code. The trade identifier is used as media code and can be entered or changed here.

Counter:

These fields can be used to enter or change the counter for the device and subordinate devices.

Concerning fluid devices with an identifier structure according to DIN ISO 1219-2, this field is designated Circuit number. Here you can enter or change the circuit number.

Subcounter:

In these fields, the subcounter can be entered or changed for the device and subordinate devices. The separator which separates the subcounter from the rest of the DT cannot be edited here.

Concerning fluid devices with an identifier structure according to DIN ISO 1219-2, this field is designated Item number. Here you can enter or change the item number.
