Assign a Junction Box

When selecting a Junction Box when applying Wiring Rules (see Create Wiring for Field Devices), the following Assign <Tag Number> to... window is displayed, initially listing all junction boxes defined in the current plant area:

1. Select the All Areas option to view equipment in all plant areas.

2. To assign a Junction Box, double-click on the required equipment tag.

   Junction Boxes and other Equipment (other than field devices) can only be created in the Wiring Manager module.

   Notes: In order to select another Tag as the Junction Box (cable end) connection that tag must have previously been created by a Wiring Rule for it to appear in the List of Equipment. For example, to connect a Field Element to a Transmitter, first the Transmitter must be created, then the element must be assigned to the Transmitter (for example, the Transmitter becomes the element's Junction Box).
   
   The instrument Signal Type is shown near the top of this window. This comes from the Instrument's Signal Type field in the AVEVA Instrumentation Instrument Data window. However, any instrument may be assigned to any junction box, regardless of signal type.
