To Add Conduit or Cable Tray Using Grips

1. Select a conduit or cable tray, and click (Add grip) to draw a run as follows:

   To start a run from…	then…
   end of segment	click at one end of the segment.
   midpoint of segment	click at the midpoint of the segment. For conduit, a tee or takeoff is inserted, depending on the connection specified in the routing preferences.
   MvPart	click on the MvPart connection.
   fitting	click in the direction of the new run.

2. For conduit: On the Properties palette, under Routing Options, specify the layout method to apply to the new conduit run.
   • If you start from an MvPart, under Dimensions, optionally specify a system and routing preference.

     The new run inherits the routing preference and system setting of the connected object.

   • If you change the nominal size before specifying the first segment of the new run, a transition is inserted.
   Tip: If the conduit is not in the conduit routing preferences, you are prompted to make a part substitution to insert into the layout at the appropriate angle.
3. For cable tray: In the Add Cable Trays dialog box:
   • If you start from an MvPart, specify a system type for System.
   • If you start from a segment or fitting, the new run inherits the system.
   • If you change a dimension before specifying the first segment of the new run, a transition is inserted.
4. Continue specifying points for the layout geometry.
