Connection Palette

After placing and devices, the connection palette is the complete control center for selecting an available circuit and connecting devices. Intuitive controls to connect, disconnect, and insert guide the user to making sure everything is connected.

Live limit feedback is provided in the interface as for each device is connected, and these limits are completely configurable in the database.

Other features are available to override addresses for as-built revisions, and to lock addresses so that subsequent modifications do not change addresses that may already be assigned in the field.

Dynamic Device Highlighting

While the connection commands are active, helpful highlight displays show the user all compatible devices that have an available connection. This makes large confusing jobs much easier to complete. In addition, devices with circuits that aren't connected optionally have an alert symbol in the project palette and in the drawing modelspace to let the user know they still need connect it to a circuit.
