Click the equal sign button. Click Get Unique Values. Double-click 411064000 from the unique values list. Click Apply, click Clear, then click Close.

Click Selection on the main menu and click Zoom To Selected Features. Click the Generate New Schematic Diagram button to open the New Schematic Diagram dialog box. Click ElecDemo:\Feeders in the Schematic Dataset or Folder text box so the generated diagram will be stored in the Feeders schematic folder.

Click the Diagram type drop-down arrow and choose GeoSchematic in the list. Keep the default [Create New Data Frame] option selected in the Output Data Frame drop-down list.

Type a name in the Schematic Diagram Name text box for the diagram to be generated (for example, "Feeder 411064000").

Make sure the Selection Set In Data Frame option is checked and the Geography data frame is currently selected in the drop-down list. Click OK.

The diagram is displayed in a new data frame. As the Multi Views mode is activated, it displays in a viewer window.
