Cross-highlighting and Validating ICD Cavity Definitions

This feature allows you to utilize the interactive connector footprint map for ICDs to cross-highlight and validate cavity definition information between pin information and its associated connector faceview symbol.

Prerequisites

The selected connector must have a corresponding symbol associated in Capital Library.

Procedure

1. Select a row in the Footprint accordion. This brings up the relevant connector faceview (if one exists) as shown in Figure 1.

2. Selecting a cavity on this faceview cross-highlights to the associated row in the pin table, again as shown in Figure 1, where cavity 5 is outlined in red. This also works in the opposite way, table to symbol.
3. If required you can click the button to pop out the faceview into its own separate window, if a larger, more detailed view is desired, as shown in Figure 2.

The controls in the window enable you to zoom and pan around the symbol. Cross-highlighting between this view and the pin table is still supported. Additionally, if multiple views are available for the selected connector, click the < or > controls to carousel through these.

Note: This feature works with both the pin table or the device footprint.

The highlighting also works between the faceview and the pin properties accordion.
