PDMS: Example of Mirror Copy FunctionHere is an example of Mirror Copy function in PDMS:
The Equipment V1001/A currently has one elbowed nozzle N2 at a distance of 1150mm west from thecenter of the equipment. One new elbowed nozzle N4 of same size and specification is to be added1150mm east from the centerline of the equipment.
Since the new nozzle is of the same specification and size but the mirror of the existing nozzle N2 we canuse Mirror copy command to create the new nozzle. Below are the steps to be executed.
Step 1:
Make Equipment V1001/A the CE (current element) in the hierarchy tree.
