Combine

Devices Dialog Box

To access: Hold down the SHIFT key on your keyboard and click the devices to be combined in the Design Browser (Design tab). Still holding down the SHIFT key, right-click one of the selected devices and choose Combine Devices.

Use this dialog box to combine devices that you have placed in the same slot and thereby merge signals from identical pins.

Objects

Field	Description
Name	Specify the name that you want the combined device to have.
Pin Map	Used to map the signals that terminate at the pins on the uncombined devices to the pins on the combined device. Each row represents a signal.
Device	The uncombined device at which the signal terminates
Pin	The pin on the uncombined device at which the signal terminates.
Signal	The name of the signal that you are mapping to a pin on the combined device.
Combined Pin	The name of the pin on the combined device to which the signal maps. Capital Systems Integrator automatically merges signals that terminate at pins with the same name on the devices to be combined. For example: A signal COND01 terminates at PIN1 on a device A1 and a signal COND02 terminates at PIN1 on a device A2. The devices A1 and A2 are being combined in a slot. COND01 and COND02 are merged together to terminate at a pin PIN1 on the new combined device because they both terminate at a pin called PIN1 on the original devices. If you want to change the pin at which a signal terminates on the combined device, click the pin name in this column and select a different one from the drop-down list. If you choose New Pin from the drop-down list, a new pin is created with a unique name following on from the existing pin names. For example: If the combined device currently has 6 pins, named 1 to 6, the new pin is called 7.
