Slot

Slots represent the location of electrical equipment within the electrical wiring system. At the most basic level, a slot is a connection point to the harness system. A slot is also referred to as a component. Electrical devices, as defined in the Capital Logic Designer diagrams, can be placed into slots to define connectivity for the slot prior to automated wire synthesis.

Slots are connected together by bundles and there must be a slot connector wherever a bundle connects to a slot.

You can either create an empty slot and place a device in it later or you can create a slot for a specific device (this action creates the slot and places the device in one step).

You can specify different types of slots:

• Equipment

• this indicates that the slot contains normal devices

• Ground - this indicates that the slot contains ground devices.

• Junction Box

• this indicates that you can route signals through this slot.

The icon for the slot in the Design Browser (Design tab) indicates the slot type:

• Equipment slot

• Ground slot

• Junction box slot

For a ground slot, a symbol is added to the center of the slot in the diagram:

For a junction box slot, a symbol is added to the center of the slot in the diagram:

• Creating an Empty Slot

• Creating a Slot for a Specific Device

• Resizing a Slot

• Specifying a Slot Type

• Overview of Junction Box Slots
