Autocad LT ladder diagrams
Autocad LT ladder diagrams
(OP)
I'm a relatively new user to Autocad and wanted to make some as-built ladder diagrams for some of the equipment in our plant, but have not had any luck finding any tutorials or anything like that on ways to set up the drawings. Everything I have come across is for Autocad Electrical and that did not look like it would be the same. I am hoping there is a step by step guide to get me started so I don't have to spend too much time experimenting on my own, too many projects going on and too little time as usual. Does anyone have any links to something I can use as a reference?

That being said, people who know how can set up templates, attributes, etc., to greatly automate the process and pop out drawings quickly.
So for your case, you need to see if you can find a ladder diagram "template" which you can edit & add to by copying existing stuff. Autocad has drawing border templates you can use for your basic format, then if you can get a ladder diagram template or block, you can insert it in your drawing, then explode it so you can edit.
Or see if someone here will post a ladder diagram. I have one, but not on this computer, and it might even be on my old desktop sitting in storage. If I have it at home, I'll post it tonight.

If you've got LT, you're going to have to create them yourself if you can't find a "go by" to modify.

I will check with some colleagues from a former employer and see if they have a ladder diagram they can send that I can use as a template until I find or come up with a procedure for doing it from scratch.
