Enables you to define miscellaneous SLD options that include options for displaying cables, motors, and heaters. Also, allows you to display a symbol legend in the single line diagram.
Cable and busway display options
Do not show cables
Enables you to determine whether or not to display associated power cables when generating conventional SLDs or SLDs based on bus rated voltage.
Do not show busways
Enables you to determine whether or not to display associated busways when generating conventional SLDs or SLDs based on bus rated voltage.
Overall SLD options
Allow you to determine whether or not you want to include any associated motors or heaters when generating an overall SLD. Note that if you choose not to display any motors or heaters, the SLD will not show the feeders associated with the motors or heaters. These options are only available after choosing Overall under SLD type on the General tab.
Show motors
Allows you to include associated motors whose minimum rated power is above the value that you select from Include motors with rated power greater than list.
Include motors with rated power greater than
Allows you to include associated heaters whose minimum rated power is above the value that you select from Include heaters with rated power greater than list.
Show heaters
Allows you to display main heaters.
Include heaters with rated power greater than
Allows you to type the minimum rated power and select the unit of measure to determine which heaters the software will include in the SLD.
Legend
Enables you to include a legend that explains the SLD symbols used in the drawing. Note that once an SLD contains a legend, you can drag the legend and move it like any other element in an SLD. An SLD legend contains all the symbols that the software uses to represent all the electrical items in a single line diagram. Also, the software shows custom symbols if you have defined the Electrical Equipment Type property and selected a symbol from the Symbol Name list in the Properties window for a particular electrical item.
Draw legend
Adds a legend in an SLD.
Horizontally
Positions the legend horizontally.
Vertically
Positions the legend vertically.
Item positions and styles
These options allow you to define vertical distance between electrical items. Also, when regenerating an existing drawing, these options allow you to control the position of items in a drawing after manually changing the original position of items in that drawing. Also, allows you to instruct the software to reset all the custom styles of symbols in the drawing to their initial styles.
Vertical distance between electrical items
Allows you to define the vertical distance between electrical items in your SLD drawings. This setting applies to all electrical items in a branch except for circuit internals. Type in the required value and select the unit of measure. This option becomes available after selecting the Recalculate saved item position check box.
Recalculate saved item positions
For manual SLDs, when selected, the software recalculates the position of all the items in the SLD in relation to their root items that have been added manually. Note that the software will regenerate the drawing and if you have moved some of the items in the drawing, those positions will not be retained except for root items.
Root items can be any power source items such as buses, converting equipment, generators,
and battery banks.
For automatic SLDs, when selected, recalculates the position of all the items in the drawing as if it was a new generation. That is, when regenerating an automatic SLD, the software recalculates the positions of all the items based on the SLD preferences that you defined. If you saved the item positions in your previous generation, these positions will not be retained.
Retain bus positions
Allows you to retain all the positions of the buses as they were last saved in the drawing. Note that all the branches will remain intact and all the items will be in the saved positions.
Reset custom styles
Resets the symbol custom styles for both automatic and manual SLDs to that of the default styles as they have been defined in Catalog Manager. Available only when regenerating an existing drawing. Note that this option only affects those symbols that are on the opened SLD. If you select this option, the software cancels all the manual changes in the current SLD and all the items will be displayed as they are defined in your symbology. Also note that this option depends on your preference settings for single line diagrams. See Working with Symbols in the Catalog Manager help.
Reference label options
Allows you to define a symbol that will serve as a reference label representing the connection and relationship to the items that are not displayed on a single line diagram.
Show reference label
Allows you to display or hide the reference label in the current drawing.
Reference label
Allows you to type a symbol name or browse to a symbol that will be used as the reference label in the current SLD.
If you do not select a symbol, the software uses a default symbol for the items that
are not shown.
