Cabel summary fields

[davidp]

Hi

I’m trying to create a cable summary report but I like to add field that are not available. Like Section and wire layer name.

I can get those fields in cable from/to report but I don’t want all the extra lines of each cable weir that comes with that report.

Is there any way to do this??

If you use this User Post: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-electrical-forum/cable-from-to-for-mounting/m-p/5276917#M37503

You can get a "cable summary"-report using the cable from/to report. Hence, you should get all the fields you need for your report.

Type
(findfile "cablecon.lsp")

At the command line to find the existing file. Files have been moved around a bit in AutoCAD, because of security (running unsigned code).

You can place the new version av cablecon.lsp/dcl somewhere else (like on a server), and make sure AcadE finds the file by placing a reference to the network location in AutoCAD's Options -> Files -> Support Files Search Path
