Unlocking All Circuit Addresses

Command

Prerequisites

• A FireCAD project must be open
• An active circuit must be selected in the Circuits palette

Overview

The ATUNLOCK_ALL_CIRCUIT_ADDRESSES command removes address locks from all devices on the active circuit. After unlocking, addresses will be recalculated automatically when devices are added, removed, or resequenced.

Steps

1. Select the target circuit in the Circuits palette
2. Type ATUNLOCK_ALL_CIRCUIT_ADDRESSES in the AutoCAD command line
3. All addresses on the circuit are unlocked
4. Device labels update automatically (addresses may change if the sequence has been modified)

Tips

• Use this when you need to re-address an entire circuit from scratch
• Unlocking triggers automatic addressing based on current device sequence order
