Using AutoCAD® to Read the File
The simplest way to put the one-line drawing into AutoCAD:
- Make sure you are in the EasyPower focus you want to be sent to AutoCAD, and write to a DXF file as explained in Export Drawings to a DXF File.
- Use the AutoCAD Import command to read the DXF file that you created in Step 1 into your AutoCAD drawing.
Layer Names
The following is a list of the layers in the DXF files EasyPower creates. Using CAD system commands, you can turn on, turn off, rename, and otherwise manipulate these layers.
