Command

Path

Make Connections from List

ConnectCAD > Compare

This command uses a cable worksheet to create circuit connections between devices. The worksheet could be one that you imported from another drawing or one that you created and edited.

A useful way of using this command is to first select the Compare Cable List and Drawing command to select cables which have been deleted in the cable list. Delete the cables. Then use the Make Connections from List command to add new circuits.

Existing devices and sockets need to be present on the drawing.

To create circuits from a worksheet:

1.      Open a circuit worksheet from the Resource Manager.

2.Select the command.

The circuits are created, and they are selected on the drawing. Where source and destination sockets are fairly close, polyline-style circuits are drawn; otherwise, arrow-style connections are used.
