Single Switch. This element switches currents on and off. Place up to five switches in the simulation window. With the Select tool, you can move and rotate switches, and wire them to other objects. You attach wires to the switch's two nodes, which are indicated by the yellow rectangles in Figures 1 and 2.

The default position of the switch is off. You can flip the switch on or off in either Run mode or Stop mode. To flip the switch in Realistic View, click on the metallic handle (Figure 3) and drag it into the start (or stop) position (Figure 4). To flip the switch in Schematic View, just click in the switch box (Figure 5).
