Draw a Circuit Diagram with Pico 4-3

Button Operation

The cursor buttons in the Pico circuit diagram perform three functions.
The current mode is indicated by the appearance of the flashing
cursor:

• Move
• Enter
• Connect

In Move mode, you can use the arrow keys to move the cursor
around the circuit diagram in order to select a branch, contact or relay
coil.

Use Ok to switch to Enter mode so that you can enter or change a
value at the current cursor position. If you press Esc in Enter mode,
Pico will undo the most recent changes.

Press Alt to switch to Connect mode for wiring contacts and relays.
Press Alt again to return to Move.

Press Esc to leave the circuit diagram and parameter display. Pico
performs many of these cursor movements automatically. For
example, Pico switches the cursor to Move mode if no further entries
or connections are possible at the selected cursor position.

Opening the Parameter Display

If you specify the contact of a relay type in Enter mode, Pico
automatically switches from the contact number to the parameter
display when you press Ok.

Press the right arrow

to switch to the next contact or coil field without

entering any parameters.
