Numbering instruments on a hanging position

Instruments can be numbered according to the hanging position automatic numbering parameters.

Other numbering options are available from the Spotlight Numbering command; see Numbering light plot objects.

To automatically number the instruments on a hanging position:

1.      Select the hanging position.

2.      From the Object Info palette, specify the Starting Number, Increment, Numbering Direction, and, for multi-circuit instruments, the Multi-Circuit Numbering.

3.      Click Auto Number.

The instruments are automatically numbered. The Unit Number in the Object Info palette of a selected lighting instrument displays its number, which can be changed to override the automatic number.

To display the numbers on the drawing, specify a label legend that includes the Unit Number in the label. See Setting up instrument label legends.
