To create wiring equipment for a cable block diagram, you must carry out the following procedures:
-
Create a symbol containing the connectors, macros, and so forth for the required wiring equipment. For more information, see Creating a Wiring Equipment Symbol Assembly in the Enhanced Report Utility Help or Symbol Editor Help.
-
Create the wiring equipment in the Domain Explorer and associate the wiring equipment assembly symbol with the wiring equipment. For more information, see:
-
Right-click the wiring equipment, and on the shortcut menu, select New > Plug-and-Socket Group.
-
Follow the instructions on The Plug-and-Socket Group Wizard, to create the connector groups.
At the end of the process, under the wiring equipment, the Plug-and-Socket Group icon appears.
-
Connect the required cables to the wiring equipment.
To connect a cable to the plug-and-socket group, the cable must have a plug-and-socket connector on one end of the cable.
