Electrical Audit Dialog Box

Detects problems related to wires and components, and describes the problems in a dialog box on a series of tabs.

 Command entry:  AEAUDIT

Project

Displays the audit information for all the drawings in the active project.

Active Drawing

Displays the audit information for the active drawing only. If a different drawing becomes active, the display updates for that drawing. If the active drawing is not part of the project, the Active Drawing control is disabled and the Project control is selected.

Wire - No Connection

Displays the unconnected wires for the active project. The report lists the unconnected wire number, location point, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs. If there is not a record of a wire number, the wire number column is blank.

Wire Exception

Displays missing or duplicated wire numbers for the active project. The report lists the duplicated wire number, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs. If a wire number is missing, the wire number column is blank.

Cable Exception

Displays the duplicated cable and wire id for the active project. The report lists the duplicated cable tags or cable tags with duplicated wire id, error message, reference of the cable tag, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Component - No Catalog Number

Displays components with no bill of material part assignments. The report lists the component reference designation tag, component category, reference of the component tag, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Component Duplication

Displays the duplicated components. The report lists the component reference designation tag, component category, reference of the component tag error message, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Component - No Connection

Displays component connections with no connected wires. The report lists the component reference designation tag, component category, reference of the component tag, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Mixed Component Network

Displays components in the wire network that carry a mixture of different WDTYPE attribute values. For example, a one-line symbol (WDTYPE value of “1-”) connected to a schematic symbol (WDTYPE value missing or blank).

Terminal Duplication

Displays duplicated schematic terminal numbers. The report lists the terminal tag id and duplicated terminal number, reference of the terminal number, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Note: Terminal numbers listed in WDN files (located in the same folder as the project definition file (*.wdp)) are not checked for duplications. You can use wildcards to exclude a range of terminals for duplication checking using this text file.

Pin Exception

Displays duplicated component pin assignments. The report lists the schematic component reference designation tag and component wire connection pin, reference of the component tag, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Contacts

Displays any children without a parent schematic component. The report lists the component reference designation tag for the child without a parent, reference of the child component tag, error message, and the drawing where the error occurs.

Recovery Tip

Displays the recovery tip so that you can fix the error.

Go To

Goes to the error location within the project and highlights the object, allowing you to correct the error. It is enabled when you select a single audit record in the dialog box. Once you browse to an error location an "x" appears in the left-hand column of the Electrical Audit dialog box.

Note: You can also double-click an audit record to go to the error location.

Save As/Save All

Saves the audit report. Save As saves only the active report while Save All saves the complete audit report.

Print

Prints the audit report.

Note: A blank Category value indicates a schematic component.
