Capital Harness Designer Modular > Module Code Assignation

Defining Module Assignation

Constraints

You can define constraints regarding module assignation rules. These may be set at both Project Level and directly on the Harness Design. Use to automatically assign module codes for all design objects using a plugin, or to assign module or technical module codes for selected objects.

Note

If you add constraints to a design, the module code assignation dialog boxes will not be displayed as your constraints will control assignation.

Procedure

Press Space Bar and enter Rules. The Define Rules dialog box is displayed.
Create a new rule or edit an existing rule and add the required constraints. Three possible constraints exist for Module Assignation:Assign Module Codes for All Design Objects via Plugin This constraint enables the user to control completely how assignation should be performed on the selected objects, or in the case where no objects are selected, the entire design. There are no parameters available for this constraint type; however, the user should specify any required plugin constraint to be performed.

Assign Module Codes for Selected Objects This constraint enables you to influence how, or if, individual objects should be analyzed to determine the required module codes. Supply the object, Module Space, and method values. If required, a plugin constraint can also be specified for this constraint. Available values for objects are: All

Breakout Tape

Clip

Connector

Device

Grommet

Insulation Layer

Insulation Run

Multi-Crimp

Multi-Location Component

Other Component

Overbraid

Splice

Spot Tape

Available values for Module Space are: Functional

Production

Available values for Method are: Standard Only

Standard (with Mandatory, then Factor)

Mandatory Modules Only

Mandatory Module(s), then Factor

Assign Technical Module Codes for Selected Objects This constraint enables you to determine how, or if, technical modules should be created for specific object types. Supply the Module Space and object values. A plugin constraint can also be specified for this constraint. Note When performing assignation using the Assign Module Codes dialog box and when the Technical Module check box is enabled, technical module assignation will be performed using the preferences defined in the project.
