Objects

Field	Description
File	Click the ellipsis (...) button to display the Select Harness dialog box where you locate and select the harness file to be imported.
Run DRCs	If you select this, the import runs all design rule checks set to run in Harness Transfer mode and indicates any issues. If there are any issues, they are displayed on the Harness Import tab of the Output Window.
Signal Name - Method	Enabled only when a valid X2ML file (harness X2ML or wiring X2ML) is selected in the File field. Specify how the imported signals are named in the Capital Systems Integrator design: Sequential The import names the signals sequentially with a prefix. Specify the Prefix (for example, SIG). Each signal is named in the order that it is encountered during the import, starting at 1 (for example, SIG1, SIG2, SIG3). Positional The import names the signals based on an attribute/property value of the wires that carry them. Specify a wire Attribute/Property whose value you want to use. Specify the number of the Start and End characters of the value string to be used. For example, Attribute/Property = Name, Start = 2 and End = 5. In this case, if a wire name is WABCD12, the signal name is ABCD. You can leave the End field blank to mean the end of the value string. Delimiter The import names the signals based on a wire attribute/property value that uses delimiters (prefix and suffix). Specify a wire Attribute/Property whose value you want to use. Specify the First delimiter and Last delimiter used in the value, and the Max Length that the signal names can have. For example, Attribute/Property = Name, First delimiter = - and Last delimiter = -. In this case, if a wire name is W-ABCD-12, the signal name is ABCD. If Max length = 3, the wire name is ABC. You can leave the First delimiter and Last delimiter fields blank to mean the start or end of the value string. You can leave the Max Length field blank to mean no maximum length. If the system names multiple signals the same, it merges them into one signal. You can develop your own custom methods using extensibility plugins. See the PluginDevelopment.pdf file, located in the doc\plugin folder of your Capital installation.
