Auto-numbering
Function: Automatic component numbering
With Auto-numbering, a number is added to the component reference name to uniquely
identify each component.
This command gives you the ability to re-number new component references (e.g.
terminals, contactors).
Select 'Automatic funct. - Automatic numbering' and the 'Auto numbering' dialog
appears:
The 'Selection' group shows the equipment to be renumbered and the 'Style' group
shows the method of numbering (you see a preview in the left window).
First select the method of numbering from the 'Style' group. In this case 'Name #' for
continuous numbering without a page number.
