Grouping Wires into Signals

You can group wires into signals on a topology diagram. The wires are assigned to the signal if they have a particular attribute or property and the attribute / property value is used as the name of the signal.

Prerequisites

• In the associated Capital Logic Designer designs, the wires must have a value specified for the attribute or property that you are using.

• The Capital Logic Designer designs must be associated with the topology diagram. See Logical Design Association.

Procedure

1. To open the Associate Signals By Attribute or Property Dialog Box:Press the space bar and enter Associate Signals By.

Click the Associate Signals By Attribute or Property button () in the Design Browser (Capital Wiring Integrator).

2. Choose to use an attribute or property for the grouping, and select it from the dropdown list.

3. Click OK.

Results

• The results of the action are saved and cannot be undone.

• In the Design Browser, signal nodes are created for the values of the selected attribute or property under the Signals section of the tree.

• Wires with values for the selected attribute or property are moved under the signal node that matches their attribute/property value.
