Connector Refinement and Signal Mapping

Generalized Connector

The term ‘generalized connector’ refers to the slot connectors on slots, interface connectors and inline connectors that display in a Capital Systems Integrator diagram window and Design Browser (Design Tab). The Signal Map dialog boxes in Capital Systems Integrator allow you to refine these connectors by creating a mini-topology that replaces the generalized connector with one or more specialized connectors.

Within a Signal Map dialog box, a specialized connector becomes a generalized connector when only one specialized connector exists for a generalized connector and there are no variant wires. In this case, the last specialized connector is removed from the Signal Map dialog box (see Signal Map Dialog Box for Inline, Signal Map Dialog Box for Interface Connector or Signal Map Dialog Box for Slot as appropriate for full details of the dialog box) and its attributes are transferred to the generalized connector.
