Cut, Copy, and Paste

Using these editing commands in the device library is similar to the way they are used elsewhere; however, there are a few differences. Style, sizes and temperatures listed in yellow columns cannot have duplicate listings and cannot be left blank.

Cut: The Cut feature is applicable only to text edit fields, not to spreadsheets. Select the text you want to cut. Click the right mouse button to view the edit options and click Cut.

Copy: Select the data you want to copy. Press CTRL+C on the keyboard. You may copy a row, a column, or any section of the sheet other than the headers and the row markers. You may also click the right mouse button to view the edit options and click Copy cell(s).

Paste: After you have copied the data to the clipboard, you may copy to a different place on the sheet, a different sheet, or even into a different program. However, the data cells in EasyPower's device library have certain ranges assigned to them; you cannot paste a number into a cell if it is outside of that range. To paste data, select the cell where you want to paste the data and press CTRL+V on the keyboard. You can also click the right mouse button to view the edit options and click Paste cell(s).

Note: If you attempt to paste and at least one of the new numbers is out-of-range, you will receive the following message: "Cannot paste all items. Some values are out of range." When you click OK, EasyPower pastes the valid data and leave the other data unchanged.

Copy/Paste Style Contents: For some devices, a style may contain several spreadsheets or ranges of data. Copying all the data from one style to another is made easy by the Copy Style Contents feature. Move the pointer over the style name you want to copy data from and click the right mouse button. From the edit options that appears, click Copy Style Contents. This feature applies to LV Fuses, ICCB, and MCCB.

After copying style contents from one style to the clipboard, move the pointer over the style name you want to copy data to and click the right mouse button. From the edit options that appear, click Paste Style Contents. You can paste the style contents to a different style name in the same type or to a different type, manufacturer, or library. If you are pasting the data on the same spreadsheet you copied from, remember to create a unique style name first.

Copy/Paste Sensor Contents: This feature applies to solid state trip devices only. All of the data within a sensor description can be copied by placing the pointer over the frame name or row, clicking the right mouse button, and clicking Copy Sensor Contents.

Copy/Paste Frame Contents: This feature applies to MCCB, solid state trip, and non-solid state trip devices. All of the data within a frame description can be copied by placing the pointer over the frame name or row, clicking the right mouse button, and clicking Copy Frame Contents.

After copying the frame contents, you can paste it to another frame. If the new frame is in the same spreadsheet, it must have another name. You must type in the frame name before you can paste any data. Place the pointer over the new frame name or row, click the right mouse button, and click Paste Frame Contents.

Copy/Paste kV Contents: This feature applies to HV Fuses only. To copy the TCC data for all fuse sizes of a model and kV for an HV fuse, click on the button  . To paste the TCC data for all fuse sizes of a model and kV for an HV fuse from one kV to another or from one model to another, click on the button  .

Copy/Paste Device Function Contents: This feature applies to relays only. To copy the device function contents of a relay from one device function to another, click the right mouse button with the pointer over the device function name from which you wish to copy. Select Copy Device Function Contents. To paste the contents to another device function, make sure that the device function name already exists. Device function names must be unique. Click the right mouse button with the pointer over the device function name to which you want to paste. Click Paste Device Function Contents. All the relay information is copied to be exactly the same.
