3. Click and drag to place the opposite corner of the slot.A gray rectangle is displayed.

4. Click the grid point to place the opposite corner of the slot.

Results

• Any harness connector attached to the logical device is added as a slot connector to the edge of the slot. If a device connector is attached to a harness connector in the Capital Logic Designer design, a device connector is created as a separate object that is connected to the slot connector. The device connector is added to the Design Browser (Capital Wiring Integrator).

• If the device has any direct-to-device connections in the Capital Logic Designer design, one hole is added to the slot automatically.
