Adding Ring Terminals to

a Slot

The system adds ring terminals to slots automatically when placing devices with stud pins. You can add further ring terminals to a slot manually. To do this, you add a connector and convert it to a ring terminal.

Procedure

1. Add a connector to the slot by right-clicking on it, choosing Add slot connector and clicking on the appropriate location on the slot; the system creates a slot with no cavities.

2. Convert the connector to a ring terminal by right-clicking it and choosing Convert to Ring Terminal. Alternatively, click the connector, press Space Bar and enter Convert to Ring Terminal.Note You can convert only connectors with no cavities or just one cavity to ring terminals.

Results

• The connector becomes a ring terminal.

• The ring terminal is listed with the Connectors for the slot in the Design Browser (Design tab).

• You can edit the name attribute for the ring terminal.

• You can convert the ring terminal back to a connector by right-clicking it and choosing Convert to Connector.
