Cable Termination Options

When terminating a cable from the Terminations window, you will be prompted to select a termination options from the Connect Options window:

Match Signal Nos

Attempts to match the signal number on opposite side of terminal strip with any signal numbers found in the cable's 'Cores to Terminate' list. If a match is found, that core/wire will be terminated at the terminal with the matching signal number.

Don't Match Signal Nos

Wiring Manager looks for first available terminal and connects the first core in core list to the first available terminal found. It then looks for the next available terminal and terminates the next core .

Two sub-options may be applicable:

• Terminate Shields/Screens/Earth - When checked, screens/shields/earth will be terminated. When unchecked, they will be left disconnected.

• Skip Shield/Screen/Earth Terminals - If the Terminate Shields/Screens/Earth option is unchecked, you are given the option to skip a terminal where a shield/screen would have been terminated, or where the other side of a terminal has a screen/shield terminated.

  Note: In all cases, signal/wire numbers will be updated using Wiring Manager's Signal Number Inheritance feature. If you chose not to match signal numbers, and signal numbers on a available terminal do not match, you are warned of this, but the termination still takes place.
