Hi, I want to add a pin manufacturer and pin manufacturer number for each pin of a parametrically created connector using AutoCAD Electrical 2012 - I've been using the symbol builder tool to modify the connectors (VCN1_1PJ, VCN2_1PJ, etc...) and all I've been doing is adding PINMFG01P, PINMFGNUM01P attributes to the symbols. The problem is that the added attributes aren't defined incrementally like the terminals are when the symbol is created (PINMFGNUM01P, PINMFGNUM02P, PINMFGNUM03P...) - I just get the specified pin count's worth of "PINMFGNUM01P"s.
Is there a way to add attributes to the connectors so that I get them defined as 01P, 02P, 03P etc when the symbol is created?
I want to have these attributes built into the connectors for from/to wirelist reports.
Any help is appreciated - even a nudge in the right direction.
Thanks
Ok, if I add wire connections to the symbol the wire connection attributes are tagged incrementally when the connector is built which is great, but then one of the already existing terminal attributes will no longer be tagged incrementally and produce dublicates - it seems the number of wire connection attributes is limited to 2 in the parametric connector reference files. Does anybody know why this is and how to get around it?
