Description

OnLine Protocol…

The OnLine Protocol is the main error finding feature of cadett ELSA, and it should be used very frequently.

 

Please refer to “cadett ELSA Tutorial (5.3).pdf”, section 8.1, pages 263 – 267, for a detailed description of the OnLine Protocol.

 

Connected symbols

The Connected symbols feature allows you to check individual connection chains directly in the Drawing Environment. It is a highly valuable tool to facilitate finding and correcting drawing errors.

 

Please refer to “cadett ELSA Tutorial (5.3).pdf”, section 13.2.1 and 13.2.3, pages 343 – 347, for a detailed description of the Connected symbols feature.

 

Connection view

The Connection view is a very effective error finding feature for connections. It presents the content of the connection database graphically direct on top of the circuit diagram on the screen. It should be used frequently.

 

Please refer to “cadett ELSA Tutorial (5.3).pdf”, sections 13.2.2 – 13.2.3, pages 345 – 347, for a detailed description of the OnLine Protocol.

 

Undo

This is the standard AutoCAD U command (the same as <CTRL_Z>), adapted for use in the cadett ELSA Drawing Environment. The effect of the last command is repealed. The Undo command can be repeated to repeal multiple commands. Please note that some cadett ELSA macros are composed of multiple commands and therefore require multiple undo’s to be repealed entirely.

Cancel is identical with pressing the <ESC> button twice. Any command currently running is aborted.
