You can choose which component types to renumber. Define the component types to be<br />

numbered in the 'Selection' group, in this case: 'Standard', 'Coil / Contact',<br />

'Main/side elements', 'Terminals', 'Cables', 'Plug / Socket' and 'PLC' .<br />

After completing your selections, click on the 'Start' button to begin the numbering<br />

process.<br />

You should answer the question 'Automatically create copies' with 'Yes'. This<br />

command creates a set of security copies which are stored in the sub directory 'SAFE'.<br />

Should there be unexpected changes after the numbering, you can exit WSCAD 5 and use<br />

the Explorer to copy the files from the sub directory back into your project directory, to<br />

restore them to the pre-numbered state.<br />

Coils, contacts, and terminals without assigned references will<br />

cause an error.<br />

If you review your drawings, you will see that the Automatic function has altered the<br />

reference names for each component, by adding a sequential number to the existing<br />

reference letter, and has also numbered the terminals.<br />

TIP<br />

- Settings for terminals are defined under 'Settings - Common<br />

Settings - Terminals'.<br />

- Settings for cables are defined under 'Settings - Common Settings<br />

- Cables'.<br />

saving many man-hours on this tedious error-prone task.<br />

Auto cross reference<br />

Professional version: Cross-referencing ends of lines<br />

It is possible to add a cross-reference to the ends of lines that have the same name and<br />

continue in another location, e.g. on another page.<br />

Select 'Automatic funct. - Auto. Cross-reference' and then 'Related lines'.<br />

You will be prompted with the question 'Automatically create copies'. When you<br />

answer yes (or no) the program will then carry out the cross-referencing.<br />

Line cross-references are related to the line names. On page 1 the ends of P11 and N11<br />

are marked with the path (note the drawing frame border is divided into numbered
