Change PLC IO Address Layer

We want our device tags to have a heavier lineweight without making the PLC IO Address take that same heavier lineweight. Is there a way to assign the IO Address to a different layer?

Hello, @kswankZAHXZ ! Nice to see you in Autodesk Community! 😀

Would you mind to tell also what version (year) of AutoCAD Electrical do you use?

I'm sorry, yes. I am using AutoCAD Electrical 2023.

At first blush, I want to say that this can't be done, at least, not in the way you envision. But, before I can say that for certain, we need more info:

 

*are you using shx fonts, or true type fonts?

*are your drawings using ctb or stb?

*are these parametric PLCs?

*are you referring to the I/O address within the PLC symbol, or wire numbers that reflect the PLC address?

 

Even if we can't do this via layer assignments, we might be able to come up with a workaround, based on your answers to these questions.
