Manually Creating a Harness Level for a Harness

You can manually create a harness level for a harness at any time and specify the options that are supported by that harness level.

See Harness Level for a definition of what a harness level is.

Procedure

  1. With a Capital Systems Integrator diagram open, press Space Bar and enter Harness Level optimization; the Harness Level Optimization Dialog Box displays. The harnesses in the design are listed in the Harness table.

  2. Select the harness for which you want to create a harness level and click the Define Harness Levels () button; the Harness Levels for: Dialog Box displays. The dialog box lists the harness levels that you have created for the harness.

  3. Click the Add a new Level to the harness () button; the Add Level dialog box displays.

  4. Specify the name of the harness level and click OK.The harness level is added to the Levels table.

  5. If required, specify a part number for the harness level.

  6. Specify whether you want the harness level “Set as Active”.

  7. Select either models or variant options supported by the harness level. This video demonstrates the behavior when you select models and variants.

  8. Select any options supported by the harness level.Note If an option is selected for a harness level, this does not necessarily mean that the harness level has any wiring to support that option. The level may be fitted into vehicles that have that option, even if no wires are active for that option in this particular harness.

  9. Click OK.
