The Panel Wire Schedule Format
The field structure for the panel wire schedule file, <ProjectName>WIRSCH.dbf, is as follows:
Field Name | Default Width | Description | Source |
---|---|---|---|
WIRE | 25 | Name given to wire marker attached to the conductor or default conductor name | From WIRENAME attribute of wire marker OR generated internally |
NETWORK | 10 | Number given to each physically connected set of line segments representing a wire (where continuation is ignored). | Generated inside report function |
PNLNO | 25 | Panel number for this termination | From attribute of component at termination |
DEV_TBLK | 25 | Name given to the device or terminal block at this termination for the conductor | From TAGNAME or TBLOCK attribute of component at termination |
TERM | 25 | Terminal number of device or terminal block at this termination for the conductor | From terminal attribute of component at termination |
TERMSIDE | 12 | The side of a polarised terminal into which this conductor is connected. | Position of line segment on schematic drawing. |
FERRULE | 25 | Ferrule(wire label), if one is placed at this termination or name of this wire if no ferrule(wire label) marker exists | From Termination block attributes or same as WIRE field |
TYPE | 15 | Type of wire as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire | From catalog if wire marker exists |
SIZE | 10 | Size of wire as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire | From catalog if wire marker exists |
RATING | 20 | Rating of the wire as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire | From catalog if wire marker exists |
REFRNCE | 59 | Reference of location of component at this termination for the conductor | Calculated from position of component on drawing |
MANUF | 25 | Manufacturer name for wire, blank if default named wire | From MFG attribute of wire marker if it exists |
CATNO | 50 | Manufacturer's part number, blank if default named wire | From CATNO attribute of wire marker if it exists |
USER | 55 | User defined data | From USER catalog field |
PRICE | 10 | Price per unit length as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire | From catalog if wire marker exists |
STATUS | 59 | The status of the component. Can be either FIXED, MIXED or FLUID. You can configure these words in the Setup Preferences page | Generated in function |
CRIMP_A | 59 | The crimp for the wire | From Termination block attributes |
WARNINGS | 255 | Wire schedule warnings | Generated in function |
ORDER | 6 | Wire order number | Order attribute from Termination block |
DRUMSIZE | 15 | The length of wire contained in one whole drum. Used by Paneldes to produce a drumming report. | From catalog if wire marker exists |
Notes
-
When "only wire extension markers can be continuations" and join the networks of line segments that make up wires, a connected line segment network can be identified only by considering both the wirename (WIRE column) and network value (NETWORK column). This is as a result of the possible re-use of a wirename in a second panel under this system. See Conductor Naming and Continuation.
