Sensors, Switches, and Pushbuttons

The category Sensors, Switches and Pushbuttons contains connectable objects of the following types:

A 3D window is available for sensors, switches, and pushbuttons. It serves to model a 3D representation including pins for further use in the EPLAN Harness proD workspace.

It is also possible to create a 2D representation of sensors, switches, and pushbuttons, which can then be used in the EPLAN Harness proD nailboard. The 2D window is not active by default, but you can add it via the Add 2D function from the Part menu or the button from the toolbar.

Note:

A connecting point is automatically created in the 2D window. The connecting point determines the position of the objects's symbol in the nailboard.

Sensors, switches and pushbuttons have the same properties as connectors, however - unlike connectors - their pins do not have the Pin designation property. They are also not required to have pins in order to be considered valid.

The Full pin name property has the following format:
