This dialog allows you to associate a loop block with one or more loop number you select in the Loops folder of the Domain Explorer. In the Domain Explorer, loop blocks are shown as PPM All Outputs Graphic. You can assign the same loop block to more than one loop, provided that the target loops do not have any instrument blocks assigned using the manual block assignment method. Such blocks are shown under the loop tags as PPM All Outputs Graphic. The software, however, does not prevent you from assigning a loop block to the loop is the loop tags have instrument blocks assigned using the automatic block assignment method. Such blocks are shown under the loop tags as PPM All Outputs Graphic. After associating a block with a loop, when generating a loop drawing, the software always uses the loop block and ignores instrument blocks this loop might contain.
