Change a Cable End (Destination)

Any cable in the Cable Block Diagram can be reconnected to another Equipment node.

To change a cable's end to another equipment, click on the cable so it is highlighted. When a cable is highlighted, there will be a small green diamond shape shown at each end of the cable:

Drag the small green diamond shape to move that end of the cable to another equipment node.

Release the mouse (dropping the end) on the equipment. Electrical Wiring Manager will then redraw the cable to the new equipment.

Changing the a cable end using this method disconnects all cores terminated at the old equipment and updates the cable schedule for the dragged cable end.

Note:
The maximum number of cables that may be connected to an equipment item (or equipment catalogue item) may (optionally) be specified on the More Information window accessed from the Equipment Layout window. If the user attempts to connect a cable when the maximum number of cables has already been connected to an equipment item, a message is displayed to inform the user of this.
