Assignment

Select in which Visio drawing file to place the subsystems in your
network. You have four choices:

Single Visio Document for all Subsystems. Places all

subsystems in a single Visio document.

Prompt for Subsystem Document Assignment. Prompts you

to specify the Visio document for each subsystem.

In this dialog, you specify the Visio document for each
subsystem.

8. Click

Next. If you selected the Automatically Drop Device, FB, and Subsystem Shapes check

box, the Select Stencil dialog box appears. If it is not selected, skip to step 10.

9. Select the stencils that you want to be scanned for master shapes.

• To add a stencil, click Add Stencil, select the desired Visio stencil file (.vss), and then click

Open or double-click the stencil.

• To remove a stencil, select the desired stencil and then click Remove. You can also re-order

the stencil positions by selecting a stencil and clicking Move Up or Move Down. Click
Finish.

The LonMaker tool will then search, in order, all the listed stencils. When objects are found
within the database that are not already represented in the drawing, the LonMaker tool scans the
listed stencils and automatically adds the appropriate shape to the drawing. If the particular master
shape for an object is not found, an appropriate generic shape (a L

ON

W

ORKS

Device shape, for

example) will be used. After the LonMaker tool is done scanning stencils, the Synchronization
Status
dialog box appears.
