Combine parameters in a panel schedule template

You can combine parameters of the type(s) that display in that part of a schedule. The values for the combined parameters will display in the same cell separated by a slash or other separator.

For example, in the Header and Footer sections, you can combine Project Information and Electrical Equipment parameters. In the Circuit Table, you can combine Electrical Circuit parameters. In the Loads Summary, you can combine Electrical Equipment parameters.

Note: Because combined parameters are not assigned to a category, they cannot be reused. If you want to move the calculated value to a different cell, you must re-enter it.

1. Click Manage tabSettings PanelPanel Schedule Templates Edit a Template.
2. In the Edit a Template dialog, select a template type and click Open.
3. Select a cell and click Combine Parameters.
4. You add and remove parameters by moving them between the panes:
   • Highlight a parameter in the Panel schedule parameters pane and click Add Parameter to move it into the Combined parameter pane.
   • Highlight a parameter in the Combined parameters pane and click Remove Parameter to move it into the Panel schedule parameters pane.
5. Optionally, you can add a prefix, suffix, or sample value to the parameter.

   The sample value is displayed in the Preview so that you can edit as needed before closing the dialog.

6. By default, a slash (/) displays as the separator between shared parameters. Click OK.

   You can specify a new separator symbol in the Separator cells.

7. Click OK.
