Insert plugs for sensors

One plug is defined for each sensor. To ensure that the plugs are positioned correctly on the sockets of the 1a Page page, copy the sockets of this page to the clipboard, and insert them in the 1b Sensors page at the same position.

  1. Mark the sockets #<Socket:Input1>, #<Socket:Input3> and #<Socket:Input4> of the page 1a Page.
  2. Copy the sockets.
  3. Open the 1b Sensors page.
  4. Insert the sockets.

Note:

Press the keys [X] and [Y] one by one in order to position the inserted socket texts at the same location.

Now create plug texts from the socket texts.

  1. Mark any socket texts together.
  2. Select Edit > Properties.
  3. Replace the text <<...>> by #<Plug:IP>.
