Generate schematic reports

    Procedures | References

    AutoCAD Electrical has multiple schematic reports that you can run.

    Bill of Materials reports

    The Bill of Material reports report only components with assigned BOM information. These reports provide the following BOM-related features:

    • Extract BOM reports on demand, active drawing, or project-wide
    • Extract BOM reports on a per-location basis
    • Change BOM report format
    • Output BOM reports to ASCII report file
    • Export BOM data to a spreadsheet or database program
    • Insert BOM as a table right on an AutoCAD drawing
    • List parent or stand-alone components without catalog information

    Component report

    This report performs a project-wide extract of all components found on your wiring diagram set. This data includes component tags, location codes, location reference, description text, ratings, catalog information, and block names.

    Wire From/To report

    If you marked components and/or terminals with location codes, you can make good use of this report. This report first extracts component, terminal, location code, and wire connection information from every drawing in the project set. Then it displays a location list dialog box where you can make your report's "from" and "to" location selections. All the location codes AutoCAD Electrical found on the drawing set are listed on each side of this dialog box. Location "(??)" is also included in the list if AutoCAD Electrical found any component or stand-alone terminal that did not have an assigned location code.

    Component Wire List report

    This report extracts the component wire connection data and displays it in a dialog box. Each entry shows a connection to a component, the wire number, component tag name, terminal pin number, component location code (if present), and the layer that the connected wire is on.

    Connector Plug report

    This report extracts plug/jack connection reports and optionally generates pin charts. Since each wire tied to each connector pin displays in the report, each pin has two entries. One entry is for the 'in' wire and the other is for the 'out' wire. To create a more useful report, select the PIN chart 'on' radio button at the bottom of the Report Generator dialog box. Make sure the Remove duplicated pin numbers toggle is checked and click OK. It reformats the report so each pin is listed only once.

    PLC I/O Address and Description report

    This report lists each PLC module and its beginning and ending I/O address numbers. It scans your drawing set and returns all individual I/O connection points it finds. It includes up to five lines of description text and the connected wire number for each I/O point.

    PLC I/O Component Connection report

    This report scans the selected drawings and returns information about any components connected to PLC I/O points. Data for the report starts at each wire connection point and follows the connected wire. The first terminal symbol, fuse symbol, or connector symbol that is hit reports in the column marked with default "TERMTAG" label. The first schematic component reports in the column with the "CMPTAG" label. If there are multiple instances, the one closest to the PLC I/O point is the one that shows up in the report column.

    PLC Modules Used So Far report

    For this report, AutoCAD Electrical quickly scans the wiring diagram set. It returns in a few moments and displays the I/O modules it finds. Each entry shows the beginning and ending address of the module.

    Terminal Numbers report

    This project-wide, stand-alone report lists all instances of terminals. Each entry includes information tied directly to the terminal such as terminal number, terminal strip number, and location code.

    Terminal Plan report

    This project-wide, stand-alone report does a wire network extraction. It takes longer to generate, but the report includes wire number and wire layer name information.

    Connector Summary report

    This report lists a single line for each connector tag along with pins used, maximum pins allowed (if the parent carries the PINLIST information), and a list of any repeated pin numbers used. You can run this report across the project or for a single component.

    Connector Details report

    This report extracts the component wire connection data and displays it in a dialog box. Each entry shows a connection to a component, the wire number, component tag name, terminal pin number, component location code (if present), and the layer that the connected wire is on.

    Cable Summary report

    This project-wide cable conductor report gives a report listing all the cable marker tags (parent tags) found.

    Cable From/To report

    This project-wide cable conductor report lists the "from / to" for each cable conductor. It also lists the parent cable number of the conductor, conductor color code, and wire number (if present).

    Wire Label report

    This report lists wire markers/labels and can be used to create physical wire or cable labels.

     

    Procedures

    Generate a schematic report

    Generates schematic reports, such as Bills of Material, Component lists, Wire From/To, and PLC descriptions.

    Select which drawings to process. The report displays options to:

    • Change included fields.
    • Add or modify data.
    • Print.
    • Save to a file.
    • Put on the drawings as table objects.
    1. Click Reports tabSchematic panelReports.
    2. Select which schematic report to generate from the report list.
    3. Select to process the project, current drawing, or selected components.
    4. Specify any report options (if applicable).
    5. Select installation or location codes to extract (if applicable).
    6. Indicate whether to update the project database or the wire connection table with out-of-date drawings.
    7. Click OK.
    8. In the Report Generator Window, sort, format, or edit the data before sending the information to the printer, file, or the active drawing file.
      • Edit Mode: Modifies the report before you insert it to your drawing. You can move data up or down in the report, add lines from a catalog, and delete lines.
      • Put on Drawing: Opens the Table Generation Setup dialog box for specifying how to display your report as a table on your drawing.
      • Save to File: Saves the report to a file. Select the type of output file from the Save Report to File dialog box. You can define multiple file outputs. Choose from: ASCII report, Comma Delimited, Excel spreadsheet, Access database, and XML format.
      • User Post: Switch specific functions against the data in the report. When you select a switch, the LISP routine runs a function against the data and returns to the Report Generator Window.
      • Change Report Format: Changes what data fields are reported and the order in which they appear. You can change the justification of any column and the column label. The Description field can be multi-lined. If you include the Description field in your report, you choose which lines make up this field. Switch on and off the specific fields to define the Description.
    9. Once all modifications have been made to the report, save the report, place the report on the drawing as a table, or print the report.

    Location code selection for from/to reporting

    When you select to run a Wire From/To report, AutoCAD Electrical extracts component, terminal, location code, and wire connection information from the selected drawings. This dialog box allows you to make your report’s “from” and “to” location selections. All the location codes AutoCAD Electrical found on the drawing set are listed on each side of this dialog box. Location “(??)” is also included in the list if AutoCAD Electrical found any component or stand-alone terminals that did not have an assigned location code.

     Ribbon: Reports tabSchematic panelReports.
     Toolbar: Main Electrical 2
     Menu: ProjectsReportsSchematic Reports
     Command entry: AESCHEMATICREPORT

    Select Wire From/To from the report list. Specify whether to process the project, active drawing, or selected wires.

    Select location codes from the left and right-hand lists to build the report’s from/to combinations shown in the middle of the dialog box. Click OK to display the report. AutoCAD Electrical quickly filters and formats the extracted data and presents it in the Report Generator dialog box. You can then save it to a text report file, a comma-delimited file to import into a spreadsheet or database program, or insert it on to a drawing in table format.

    Location codes

    Displays the “from” (left-hand list) and “to” location codes (right-hand list) found on the drawings. Clicking a location code moves the selected code from these lists to the Report From/To list in the center of the dialog box.

    Report From/To

    Displays the combination of location codes you selected from the Location Code lists. This is used to generate the Wire From/To report.

    Buttons
    • All >> or All <<: Adds or removes all the location codes from the Report From/To list depending on which side of the dialog box the button is located.
    • << or> > : Removes the selected location code from the Report From/To list.

    Multiple Combinations

    Displays the Select Multiple From/To Location Combinations for Report dialog box. Each location code in the “From” side is linked to each location code in the “To” side of the report. For example, if you select MACHINE (from) and FLOOR (to) in addition to MCAB5 (from) and JBOX1 (to) the following combinations are created:

    MACHINE -> FLOOR

    MACHINE -> JBOX1

    MCAB5 -> FLOOR

    MCAB5 -> JBOX1

    Each of the combinations is processed and combined into a single report. Adjust the list as needed (for example, you can select to remove highlighted combinations or keep only those combinations you highlight in the list) and click OK.

    Include reverse sequences

    Includes reversed wire connections in the report. If unselected, some Wire From/To combinations may be excluded due to wire sequencing.
