LIGHTING

IT WOULD BE VERY NICE TO BE ABLE TO ASSIGN A LIGHT FIXTURE TO MORE THAN (1) CIRCUIT AND LOAD TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN NORMAL POWER AND EMERGENCY POWER. IN FLUORESCENT LIGHTS YOU CAN HAVE TWO BALLAST ONE FOR NORMAL AND ONE FOR EMERGENCY CIRCUIT.


THANK YOU!

It is possible to connect a device to more than one circuit. The ways it is
done is by adding an additional connector to the device. Each connector have
separate properties for circuit, load etc. You add the connector by
modifying the device style.

I use Relux with the AutoCAD plug in. It has a few quirks but in general is very good.

try www.relux.biz, the main program is free but the plug costs although there is a trial period.

You probably can do this already.
Add a second electrical connector to the object.
