15 - Designing New Cables

Next Topic | Previous Topic | TOC

You may design a completely new cable while at the same time creating test data against which the first prototype can be measured. You will use the same netlist editor for wire entry as was used to add or delete wires from an existing cable. Start

1 + | - Click the "Alt" tab in the Test Data summary box, and then click the "New" button to open a new design.

2 + | - Choose the connectors you need and click "OK" (not shown) at the bottom of the window.

3 + | - Enter the wire list in the same way you edited connections previously. Press the green checkmark button when all connections have been entered.

4 + | - Review the cable's wiring to confirm the design (below). You may add or remove wires at any time or, if necessary, change the gender or type of the connectors. Annotate the final result with descriptive notes, and save it in the database before finishing.
