Adding a

Splice without an Associated Library Part

You can create a splice and manually enter its attributes, before placing it onto a harness design.

Procedure

1. Press Space Bar and enter Splice Home. The cursor changes to .

2. Click to place the splice:If you click a node, the splice will be placed, anchored at that node.

If you click an empty area of the design, a new structure node will be created at which to anchor the splice.

If you click a bundle, the Node Position Utility Dialog Box is displayed and a new reference node will be created at which to anchor the splice. It is also possible to enable variant positioning and anchor the splice at any reference node on the same bundle. See also “Variant Position Reference Nodes” on the Node Position Utility dialog box.

The Add Splice Dialog Box is displayed. Note If you press Ctrl when you click to place the component, the Add Splice dialog box does not display.
