Objects
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | A unique label for the bundle (within this design). Type a name, or click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the field to select from a list of pre-specified bundle names maintained in the project’s Object Type Information in Capital Project Manager. If this field is left blank, the bundle is named according to any default names configured for the project in Capital Project Manager. Optional. |
| Short Description | Automatically displays the Short Description field of the bundle if it is already defined in Capital Project Manager. If no predefined information exists, you can enter and edit the Short Description. This attribute is then made available for use in styling and for search queries. Optional. |
| Length | The length of the bundle. Read-only. |
| Max Bundle Width | If the harness was bridged in from an MCAD application, this field displays the largest possible bundle diameter as specified within the MCAD tool. Optional. |
| MCad ID | If the harness was bridged in from another application (such as Capital Harness Classic or an MCAD application), this field displays the component's unique identifier as derived from the external data. Read-only. |
| Min Bend Radius | If the harness was bridged in from an MCAD application, this field displays the smallest possible bend radius through which a bundle can be manipulated as specified within the MCAD tool. Optional. |
| Width | The diameter of the bundle at its widest point, including all contained wires and multicores, as calculated during engineering calculations. Read-only. |
| Width With Insulations | The true diameter of the bundle at its widest point, including all applied insulations, as calculated during engineering calculations. Read-only. |
| Option Expression | Specifies the derivatives in which the node exists. To create or edit an option expression, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the field and use the Edit Option Expression Dialog Box. Alternatively, you can enter or modify an option expression directly within the field. Optional. |
| User FM Codes | (This field is only available for Capital Harness Designer Modular see “User/Generated FM/PM Fields”) |
| Generated FM Codes | (This field is only available for Capital Harness Designer Modular see “User/Generated FM/PM Fields”) |
| User PM Codes | (This field is only available for Capital Harness Designer Modular see “User/Generated FM/PM Fields”) |
| Generated PM Codes | (This field is only available for Capital Harness Designer Modular see “User/Generated FM/PM Fields”) |
| Properties Tab | See Properties Tab Dialog Box. |
| Variant Tab | Used to create a variant length for the bundle. Multiple bundle variants can be added to the list. |
| Variant Expression | Click the ellipsis (...) to open the Variant Expression Editor Dialog Box and select the Option, Functional Variant Code (Capital Harness Designer Modular only) or Production Variant code (Capital Harness Designer Modular only), that the variant length applies to. Mandatory. |
| Variant Length | The length of the bundle as it should be represented within the specified Variant Expression(s). Mandatory. To delete a variant bundle length, select it and click the Delete button in the first column of the selected row, and then click OK to confirm the deletion. |
| Rules Tab | |
| Add Rule/Constraint | Allows you to control the wire path on a harness diagram among a number of bundles and possible paths by means of a configurable constraint. See “Overview of Rules and Constraints” in the Capital Design Tools - Common Functions User Guide to set the actual constraint. Optional. |
