Module Code Management

Creating a New Module Based on an Option Expression

You can create a new module based on an option expression that is currently listed under a different module. This action splits the wiring with that option expression into a separate module.

Procedure

  1. Click the Configuration Setting Browser Window (Configuration tab) on the left of the application window and choose Module from the drop-down Mode list; the browser window on the tab lists the harnesses in the design.

  2. Select the harness(es) for which you want to edit modules and click the Manage module codes for selected harnesses () button; the browser tree expands below each selected harness to display the modules that you have created for the wires in them. It also displays the wires in those modules. See the Browser Window (Module) section of Configuration Setting Browser Window (Configuration Tab) for full details of its contents.

  3. Right-click the option expression and choose create new module.

Results

  • The option expression sub-folder and its wires are moved under a new module named after the option expression.

  • If a module already exists with that name, a suffix is added to the new module.

Examples

You can see one module A-RJ. There are wires with the option expression A-CDC and A-RJ that are in that module.

Figure 168: Create a Module Example: Before

If you right-click the A-CDC option expression and choose Create New Module, you get the following:

Figure 169: Create a Module Example: After

You now have two modules A-CDC and A-RJ, each of which contain wires with matching option expressions.
