Cross references
A component can be represented by one or more symbols. When it is represented
by several symbols, these can be inserted into different drawings. The
cross references represent the links between these different symbols.
There are several levels of cross reference, according to the standard
used and the type of symbol.
- Parent in line-type symbols
(for example a circuit breaker)
- Parent in table-type symbols
(for example a coil)
- Child-type symbols (for example
a contact)
- Same level-type symbols (for
example a push button)
- Without cross reference (for
example a power supply)
The cross references are calculated in real-time, with each action (movement,
deletion...) related to the linked symbols updating the cross references.
The automatic generation of cross references thumbnails is based on
the definition of the symbols (circuits) and
on configuration parameters.
