Explore the steps to tag and adjust lighting fixtures in a second floor plan, an integral part of the BIM 322 course. The article explains the process of labelling every lighting fixture, setting up the type mark, and organizing the lighting fixture tags.
Key Insights
- The article provides a detailed explanation of how to tag every lighting fixture on a second floor plan using the light fixture tags boxed.
- Setting up the type mark is crucial; it populates the previously empty boxes in the tagging process and ensures all elements are adequately labelled.
- After tagging, the adjustment of lighting fixture tags is necessary for a well-organized plan, and the article offers guidance on accomplishing this task.
Welcome back to the CAD Teacher VDCI video course content for the BIM 322 course. In the previous video we went ahead and got all of our wires and wire tags into the second floor lighting plan. What I'd like to go ahead and do now is let's go ahead and actually get our lighting fixtures tagged and adjusted and then we'll be good to go with that second floor plan.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to go tag all here because again I do want to tag every single lighting fixture. I'm going to choose the same one that I used before which is the light fixture tags boxed. Use my leader and hit apply and hit okay.
Now if you remember from the previous time we did this none of these boxes were actually filled with anything and that's because we hadn't set up the type mark yet. And so now what we have going on is we do have a type mark in there so everything is already good to go. All I'm going to go ahead and do now is I'm just going to go ahead and start adjusting some of these things.
So let's go ahead and just go around and adjust some of them. I'm going to go ahead and pause the video. When we come back I'll have all of my lighting tags adjusted and we'll keep continuing on with power plans and cleaning up the lighting plan.
See you then. Welcome back. I've gone ahead and went through and actually organized all of my lighting fixture tags and everything and so we're actually good to go and we're done with this.

So go ahead, zoom extents, control s, save your file. We're going to go ahead and start on the next video with creating some power plans, creating some wires, some tags and everything for that and then we'll go ahead and create our electrical sheets and we'll be good with electrical. I'll see you then.
