Topic: Terminal numbering

Hello,

I might just be too dumb to use terminals correctly. But given from some videos from older versions, there seems to be a way to create terminal blocks with the terminal block number (i.e. -X1) only appearing one time and the other terminals carry only their contact index. But all I get is in the attached screenshot.

How do I create terminal blocks with multiple terminals in the schematics?

(I'm not talking about the terminal block generator. For now I just want to draw single terminal clamps like -X1:1, -X1:2, and -X1:3.)

Thank you very much!

Regards,
Christoph

Re: Terminal numbering

Hello Christoph,

see sample drawing as industrial.qet provided with QET packages, in examples directory.
Or get here: https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectr … strial.qet

See : https://qelectrotech.org/forum/viewtopi … 048#p17048

Edit:  terminals not connected with conductors isn't saw by qet_tb_generator plug-in.

Regards,
Laurent

Re: Terminal numbering

Hello Laurent,

it looks like I'm missing a critical step in the process of how to use terminals in QElectrotech. I had a look at the industrial example but didn't find what I was looking for. The terminals there are all individual parts and the BOM lists them as i.e. X2:1, X2:2, X2:3 and so on when infact it is only one part: X2.

How am I supposed to draw for instance a common potential with three Quattro terminals bridged together? The schematics we typically use list the whole block as X1 with contacts 1 to 12 and the BOM contains three Quattro terminals and one bridge for X1.

Thanks,
Christoph

Hello Christoph,

maybe make a bridge in qet_tb_plugin sheet
