Create a Category for Cable Tray
-
Select Create, then select Category for Cable Tray from the main window drop-down.
The Create Category window opens:

-
Enter a Name.
-
Make sure the Purpose is set to TRAY.
-
Click OK to create the following database hierarchy and open the Category form.

Definition of the Cable Tray elements is as in other modules, being a task of building up the model data using the references and modelling techniques used elsewhere.

Once defined, all elements can then be used in other catalogue element structures, for example GPARTS or TABGRO, and subsequently used in Design using appropriate selection techniques.
