Terminal Editor Problem with Wblocks

I was wondering if someone else had this problem and fix.  We have created a wblock circuit that contains terminals.  These terminals have already been define as to what terminal blocks it belongs too.  We insert these wblock circuits into our project that contains other drawings that have its own been created by using wblock ciruits with terminal blocks.  When we go to the Terminal editor it acts very crazy.  It inserts multiple terminials with the same number even though there is only one terminal with its assigned number.  Terminals are inserted with no ptag and some terminals are even left off. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hi,

 

Would you please provide the issue sample project? A project with 1 or 2 drawing to reproduce your issue is ok. and also if possible, please attach some screenshot to show the issue.

 

And also, can you let me know which ACE version are you using? ACE2012 ENG?

 

Thanks,
Robin Shou

Robin,

 

I am using Autocad Electrical 2012 English.  I have attached a zipfile that contains everything you would need to see the problem. You will see the problem in TS3 and also in our surge arrestors located on the last page.  The surge arrestor pins are appearing as terminals on TS3 which does not make sense.

Can you provide more specifics on exactly what to look for in the project you posted? Maybe post some screen shots with the issues indicated to make it easier to locate in the drawing set you provided.

 

Also, Terminal Strip Editor is adding extras due to the Wires Per connection defined on the terminals. Do you get an alert when you edit TS3 regarding this? These would be highlighted in yellow.

 

I do see some terminals with no number on them but they appear to be wire number terminals with no wire number assigned.

 

Anyway, the more specifics you provide the better.

 

Regards,

Pat
