Specifies properties for an instrument component symbol.

(Database ID code)

Displays, in the dialog box title bar, a unique identifier for the component. This code can be used to find the component in the database tables. Each drawing in a project has a different numbered series. For example, drawing 1 uses the 100000 numbered series and drawing 2 uses 200000.

Function

Specifies the function type of the instrument component. Type an alphanumeric value. A FUNCTION attribute on the block symbol name is automatically updated with this value.

Loop

Specifies the loop number. Type an alphanumeric value. A LOOP attribute on the block symbol name is automatically updated with this value.

Tag

Specifies the component tag. Type an alphanumeric value. Multiple components in the database can have the same tag, but if a tag duplicates the tag of another object, a warning message appears.

Manual Update Loop

Overrides the automatic loop naming in the software. You can then type a name.

Display Attributes

Displays the values of Function and Tag on the drawing with the symbol. If this option is cleared, the values are not shown on the drawing.
