Selecting Equipment

In case the cable has already been connected to equipment items in the diagram, these equipment items will be shown in the Equipment columns to the left and to the right in the dialog. If it has not been connected, it is possible to select an equipment item in the core connections dialog by clicking on the text box and using the button.

This will bring up the standard Browse/Search dialog (Standard DB Browse Dialog) where an equipment item can be found and selected.

The text box in the Equipment column also features a fill handle. By clicking and dragging on the grey box in the lower right corner, the selected equipment can be applied to other rows in the same way that the fill handle works in applications like MS Excel.

It is also possible to change the connected equipment item for a cable that has been connected to an equipment shape in the diagram. Changing the equipment item in this dialog will only affect the core connections. The cable as such will still retain its connection to the equipment item, as defined in the diagram, and will not be affected. Theoretically it is possible to define all cores being connected to a different equipment item than the one that the cable is connected to, in the single line diagram.
