Tech Tip: How to Display Additional Parts in the Device Tree

When designing electrical wire systems in E3.series, every part—whether big or small—matters. Keeping track of every component in a project can be challenging, especially when accessories like screws, boots, and ties remain invisible by default. This new tech tip shows you how to reveal those hidden parts in your Device tree. Ensuring that nothing important gets overlooked.

Avoid the Overlooked Pitfalls

In any electrical design, missing parts can lead to delays, increased costs, and errors during manufacturing. If you do not account for these additional parts, they can throw off your Bill of Materials (BOM). Which can cause significant headaches down the line. Following this simple tech tip will give you complete visibility of these often-overlooked accessories. Which will then help you avoid potential mistakes and ensure a smooth production process.

Visibility of All Parts in the Device Tree

E3.series offers a simple yet powerful solution. With the latest 2025 update, you can easily toggle the visibility of these additional parts directly within the Device tree. This tech tip walks you through the steps to enable this feature, allowing you to instantly see all the accessories tied to your devices. The value of this solution is clear—now you can ensure that no part, however small, gets left out of your designs and that your BOM is accurate and comprehensive.
