Configuration Setting

Browser Window (Configuration Tab)

The Configuration Setting Browser Window is located on the lower left side of the application window and is opened by clicking the Configuration tab. It enables you to set wiring active in the design.

Figure 427: Configuration Setting Browser Window (Configuration Tab)

You set wiring active either based on Vehicle Configurations (their related Models and Harness Levels) or based on modules. You can then:

Filter the display of graphical objects in the Diagram Window to only those objects with active wiring or on active harness levels. See Filtering the Objects Displayed in a Capital Systems Integrator or Capital Wiring Integrator Diagram in the Capital Design Tools - Common Functions User Guide.
Depopulate wiring from active harness levels. See Depopulating Wiring from Active Harness Levels.

wiring synthesis generates wires in modules whose names are initially based on the option expressions on those wires. This tab also enables you to manage those module, whether it be renaming, sharing or merging them.

Field	Description
Mode list Composite / Module / [Custom Filter]	Specifies the mode in which you are viewing this tab. Composite View wires in the context of vehicle configurations, vehicle models and harness levels. Module View wires in the context of modules. [Custom Filter] The option is available to deploy your own custom filters for this tab, written in Java or JavaScript using the extensibility architecture. These custom filters would be displayed in this drop-down list. For example, you could create a filter that sets all multicores active or all safety wires active. For detailed information on the creation of custom filter plugins, see the CustomActionDevelopment.pdf document, located in the doc\plugin sub-directory of your Capital installation directory.
Set all levels in design active	Displayed only when Composite is selected in the Mode list. Sets the wiring for all of the harness levels and harnesses in the design to active. The Browser Window (Composite) updates accordingly.
Set all levels in design inactive	Displayed only when Composite is selected in the Mode list. Sets the wiring for all of the harness levels and harnesses in the design to inactive. The Browser Window (Composite) updates accordingly.
Set all modules in design active Set all modules in selected harnesses active	Displayed only when Module is selected in the Mode list. If you have not selected a harness in the Browser Window (Module), this sets the wiring for all modules in the design to active. If you have selected one or more harnesses in the browser window, this sets all modules for just those harnesses to active. The active harnesses display in bold in the browser window.
Set all modules in design inactive Set all modules in selected harnesses inactive	Displayed only when Module is selected in the Mode list. If you have not selected a harness in the Browser Window (Module), this sets the wiring for all modules in the design to inactive. If you have selected one or more harnesses in the browser window, this sets all modules for just those harnesses to inactive. The inactive harnesses are no longer displayed in bold in the browser window.
Manage module codes for selected harnesses	Enabled only when Module is selected in the Mode list and when one or more harnesses are selected in the browser window. By default, the browser window displays only the harnesses. Select one or more harnesses in the browser window and click this to display the modules, option expressions and wires for those harnesses. See Browser Window (Module) for a full description of what displays.
Stop managing module codes for selected harnesses	Displayed and enabled only when you select one or more harnesses in the browser window that have module codes displayed below them. Hides the modules, option expressions and wires for the selected harnesses in the browser window.
Browser window	The contents of this depends on the selection in the Mode list. See Browser Window (Composite) or Browser Window (Module).
Browser Window (Composite)	The browser tree contains the following folders: Configurations Contains a sub-folder for each of the Models in the design that is currently open in the Diagram Window. Under each vehicle model, the systems lists the Vehicle Configurations that use it. If you hold your mouse cursor over a name, a tool tip displays detailed information about it (for example, options included in a vehicle model, harness levels in a vehicle configuration). Select the box next to a vehicle configuration to set the wiring for that vehicle configuration and vehicle model combination to active. Harnesses Contains a sub-folder for each of the Harnesses in the design that is currently open in the Diagram Window. Each sub-folder contains a list of the Harness Levels that are defined for the harness. If you hold the mouse cursor over the name of a harness level, a tool tip displays information about the vehicle models that use this harness level and the options that apply to this harness level. Under each harness level, the system lists the wires that it has synthesized for it. If you hold the mouse cursor over the name of a wire, a tool tip displays detailed information about it. Select the box next to a harness level, to set the wiring for that harness level to active. Items that are currently active in the design display in bold.
Browser Window (Module)	By default, this tree lists only the Harnesses in the design that is currently open in the Diagram Window. If you select one or more of the harnesses and click the Manage module codes for selected harnesses () button, the browser tree expands below each selected harness as follows: Each harness name folder contains further sub-folders for each of the modules containing wires for that harness. Immediately below a module are sub-folders for the option expressions on wires in that module. Each option expression sub-folder contains the wires with that option expression in that module. Variant wires (wires that terminate at refined connectors) typically display within multiple sub-folders relating to each variant option expression. For example: This example shows two wires with the same option expression Audio Base. They are contained in a module called Audio which is in the harness DOOR-LF. There is another module DoorLock-Drvr && LHD in that harness. The warning sign indicates that its name is a module string and not a functional module code. The symbol next to a harness indicates that all of its modules are associated with functional module codes defined in the project. If you hold the mouse cursor over the name of a module, a tool tip displays the option expressions and numbers of wires in that module. If you hold the mouse cursor over the name of a wire, a tool tip displays detailed information about it. You can select the box next to a module to set the wiring in it to active. Items that are currently active in the design display in bold.
Enter Filter String / Clear Filter String	In the field next to the Enter Filter String icon (), enter a series of characters. A filter is applied to the browser window so that only items with names containing that series of characters are listed. The behavior of the filter varies depending on such things as whether you use wildcards and the case (upper or lower) of the specified characters. See “Browser Tab and Dialog Box Filters” in the Capital Design Tools - Common Functions User Guide for further information. Click the Clear Filter String icon () to clear the filter.
Show all harness levels / Show active harness levels / Show all modules / Show active modules	Enables you to filter the browser window based on whether items are active in the design or not. The displayed options depend on the selection in the Mode list.
Active tab	The contents of this depends on the selection in the Mode list. If Configuration is selected, this displays the details of the vehicle configuration and harness levels that are currently active. If Module is selected, this displays a list of the harnesses with active modules. Next to each harness, the tab displays the active modules for it.
Detail tab	Only relevant when Composite is selected in the Mode list. This enables you to select a vehicle configuration for which you want to view its details.

Usage Notes

You can hide the Project Browser Window / Design Browser (Design Tab) / Logical Designs Browser (Function Tab) / Parts Browser (Parts Tab) / Configuration Setting Browser Window (Configuration Tab) / Concurrency Tab by choosing the View menu option and un-checking the Browser Area box. To display the browser windows again, choose the View menu option and check the Browser Area box.
