This function is normally not required
with the Professional module, because it works with contact
combs (i.e. complete contact arrangements) that
are automatically loaded and managed by the Contactor manager. This function
is only of use when converting older projects which were not produced
with the Contactor manager. Therefore you cannot access this command
when the Contactor manager is active.
In addition to the cross-references at the contacts, duplicate contacts are displayed under the corresponding coil together with the co-ordinates of the original contacts. These duplicate contacts are rotated through 90 degrees. Any vacant contacts cannot be displayed. An additional auxiliary line can be inserted to show the height of the reflected contacts. The position of the reflector contacts is set in the Configuration, as is the type of display for page and co-ordinates. In the case of coils with aux. contacts (such as MPCBs) no contact reflectors are generated, but the cross-reference text is written directly underneath the manually inserted auxiliary contact.
TIP
This is how an auxiliary contact is created: Load a NO contact or an NC contact from the library. Do not enter a reference name (or simply accept the preset ‘K’) and place it on the right hand side of a coil. An auxiliary line (dotted) will be inserted automatically.
Attention
The pin numbers of all pins must be numeric, otherwise the automatic functions cannot recognise the contact as reflector contact.
