Hello,
I am adding a new PLC module for a schematic.
There are inputs and outputs on the same physical device.
I am putting two terminals with module info on the icon so i can display the info for the input and output.
When I break the module at the second module info terminal point, it will add another tag for that, wich overwrites the origional tag number, with a tag looking something like the attached image...
This is with the tag box left blank for the second module info terminal.
My question is this-
Is there a way to make the tag for these PLCs blank, so I do not get the resulting image?
--Thank You

Looks like you may be using a "Module Info, No Terminal" option instead of a "Terminal Point Wire Left" at the start of the break point. The "Module info...." options are usually reserved for the very first Terminal Type only. When breaking a module the child reference tag link is the standard attribute.
Thank you electricman1 for your reply.
I am purposly using this "module info terminal point wire left" so i can show a description on the second block for a description to show it is not a digital input which is the fist half of the device.
I am going to play with it more, and will report back with any viable solutions.

You could create your own terminal type by copying the module info one but instead of having the 'TAG' attribute it would have the "TAG_1" attribute in its place.
Let me know if you need any further help in doing this.
I did not think of that Tee.Dee, Thanks!
I've never tried this, so if I run into a bump in the road, i wil definitely let you know.

Worked like a charm Tee.Dee!
I copied the "Module info terminal point wire left" DWG, and deleted the TAG attribute completly. The origional tag still appears, and now there's no overlapping text.
--I owe you one, thanks.
