Viewing a

Connector Faceview Symbol in a Signal Map

In a signal map, you can view a faceview symbol for a connector.

Figure 205: Connector Faceview Panel

Prerequisites

Consider how you want to select the faceview symbols: If the connector has a library part with associated faceview symbols in Capital Component Manager, the panel offers these symbols for selection. Note A faceview symbol is created as a comment symbol with pins in Capital Symbol Designer.

If the library part does not have associated faceview symbols in Capital Component Manager, the panel searches for symbols (with the same name as the connector part number) in the symbol libraries specified in the “Connector View Libraries” project preference for Capital Wiring Integrator.

Procedure

In a Signal Map dialog box, click the Show Faceviews button () at the bottom of the Signal Mappings tab.Note The Show Faceviews button is unavailable if there are no accessible comment symbols for the connectors in the signal map.

A Connector Faceview Panel displays at the side of the dialog box. Note If you are editing a signal map for an inline connector, a panel displays for each side of the inline pair.

In the Connector Faceview Panel, select the connector for which you want to view a faceview symbol. This is necessary only if you are editing a refined connector and multiple faceviews.
If the connector has multiple, associated faceview symbols, select the appropriate faceview symbol from the dropdown list.Each item in the list consists of a symbol library name and symbol name.

Results

The faceview symbol displays in the panel.

Note

If you select a cavity in the faceview, Signal Mappings tab, or Wire Info tab, it is highlighted in all of those locations. A connector cavity name must match a datum name on the symbol to highlight it in the faceview.

If you have a refined connector and therefore multiple faceviews, the displayed faceview symbol changes accordingly as part of the cross‑highlighting.
