Editing an Overbraid

There are multiple ways you can edit an overbraid on a harness design.

Procedure

  1. Press Space Bar and enter Overbraids, or right-click an overbraid in the Harness Design Browser and select Overbraids. The Edit Overbraids Dialog Box is displayed.

  2. In the Selected list, highlight the overbraid you want to edit and click the Edit button. The Edit Overbraid Dialog Box is displayed.Note Depending on Behavior settings specified at the Project level, you may be prohibited from creating or modifying certain object attributes and properties. These are displayed as read-only. In general, it is only Capital Logic Designer, topographical and electrical attributes and properties that are protected and these should be modified prior to import into Capital Harness Designer. Other harness design attributes and relationships, for example, plugging / sealing a connector may still be modified as required.

  3. Make any changes required to the overbraid attributes or properties.

  4. Click OK to close the Edit Overbraid dialog box and save the changes, and then click OK, to close the Edit Overbraids dialog box.
