Missing Terminal Block Catalog

[Anonymous]

Hello All,

I'm using AutoCAD Electrical 2017.  In the terminal catalog look up, under Phoenix Contact, it only show about 10 Phoenix Contact part # (one that has customer part # attached to it).  Nothing else shows up.  However, when I looked under the libs directory under the TRMS folder, Phoenix Contact has many drawings but not showing up at the catalog lookup.

Anyone know how to display all part # under catalog lookup?

Thanks!

Hi there,

Select the CATEGORY then type in the mfg. and be sure to use the wild card star "*"

Good luck

Thank for the reply, but I tried it and no new phoenix terminals came up.  Remain the same.  AB has a bunch of block but Phoenix Contact only have 10 blocks.

Anything else I can try?

Thanks again

I suppose you could run the install again.  That would be closing ACE, use the Windows function to open the Control Panel, go to the Change Remove Programs, right click on your version of ACE, when the ACE splash screen opens select the Change option, now you can scroll through the screen until you find the Add Mfg window, check the ones you want and hopefully it will install what you are looking for.

Good luck

Guess I might have to re-intall.

Thanks,

NOOOOO,  WAIT, STOP

You do not have to REINSTALL    By going through the Control Panel you can CHANGE the software, which is to say you can add more stuff to the existing libraries.  DO NOT REINSTALL!!!!!!

Good luck
