Specifying the Path for Each Wire or Cable Core

To specify the path for each wire or cable core:

  1. In the PropertyManager, select a wire or core in Wire From-To List.
  2. Click Select path.
    The name of the wire or core is listed above Select segments.
  3. In the graphics area, select the segments of the route that define the path of the selected wire, starting at one connector and ending at another.
    The segments appear in Select segments.
    To reverse the order of the selections listed in Select Segments, click Reorder. This changes which connector is defined as the From connector and which is defined as the To connector.
  4. Click PM_Next.gif.
    The name of the next wire or core appears above Select segments.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have defined the path for each wire or core.
  6. Click PM_OK.gif.
    • When you select a wire name in Wire From-To List, data for that wire (such as Wire/Cable spec and From Component ref) appears in From-To Parameters. In Pin, you can type a name for the connector pin to associate with the wire.
    • If you make many changes to the routes, click Refresh Wires PM_EditWires_RefreshWires.gif to assure that all wire routes are updated and the route diameters are recalculated.
