Including

a Slot with a Harness

If you want to combine a slot and one or more bundles to form one manufacturable component, you can include a slot on a harness. This harness is then considered an integral harness for that slot.

Prerequisites

You must have added the slot connector for that harness to the slot.

Procedure

Select the slot connector for that harness on the slot in the diagram or in the Design Browser (Design tab) and either:Right-click it and choose Include Slot with Harness.

Press Space Bar and enter Include Slot with Harness.

If the slot connector is connected to multiple harnesses, the Select Integral Harness Dialog Box displays. Select the harness for which you want to include the slot and click OK.

Results

The gray square representing the slot connector becomes smaller.
In the Attributes section of the General tab of the Edit Properties dialog box for the slot connector, the Integral attribute is selected.
In the Attributes section of the General tab of the Edit Properties dialog box for the slot, the Integral Harness attribute displays the name of the harness.
If you combine a slot with more than one harness, the names of the slot connectors change so that they all have the same name as the slot connector on the first harness that was combined with the slot. Note You can specify a route code to distinguish between slot connectors when there is more than one slot connector combined with a slot. This information is not used in Capital Systems Integrator but is used if the design is synchronized with a Capital Harness Designer design. See Specifying a Route Code for a Connector.
