Models
If you created instance models in your schematic and want to
reuse them, there are two things you can do:
• Assign the instance model to other part instances in the
same schematic.
• Change the instance model to a global model and create a
symbol that corresponds to it.
Or you can replace steps 2-4 as
follows:
1
In the schematic editor, select
the symbol that you want to
chan
e.
2
From the Edit menu, select
Symbol to start the symbol
editor.
Now you can continue with step
5 in the main procedure.
