Item tag

Terminal strip configuration
Allows you to apply a reference terminal strip configuration to the current terminal strip. Also, you can define a terminal strip configuration on the fly. The software creates the terminal strips and the terminals based on the configuration you use. However, the software does not retain the configuration that you create on the fly. To save a configuration for later use, define a reference terminal configuration in the Reference Data Explorer. See Define a Reference Terminal Strip Configuration.
