Overview
Logical
Design Association
To place devices and synthesize wiring in a topological design, you must associate one or more logical designs from Capital Logic Designer with it. When doing this, you associate a specific revision of each design.
You can associate more than one logical design with a single topological design. To do this, you can either associate the designs individually or associate a build list.
You can replace a logical design association with either an association to a newer revision of that design or with an association to a similar design that is not a related revision. When you do this, the topological design retains the device placement and wiring for common devices and nets from those logical designs or revisions.
Note
The “Associated logical designs changed” Audit Trail event is available for when changes are made to logical design associations.
Build List Association (Managed Mode)
If you use a build list, you enter a managed mode where Capital Systems Integrator is aware of any changes to the build list. You can add new logical designs and revisions to the build list at any time in Capital Logic Designer or Capital Project Manager.
When you open the topological design in Capital Systems Integrator, an “Update design associations?” message displays if changes have been made to the build list. At that point, you choose either to not update the associations (Don’t Update) or to review those changes (Review Changes). If you review the changes, they are not applied until you click OK in the Associate Logical Designs dialog box. Click Cancel if you do not want to apply them.
