Wire Count Report

You can create an HTML report about the wires connected to a connector (inline, slot, or interface). The report provides details about the number of wires that are connected to the connector in the various harness levels and options.

The information contained in the report is as follows:

  • For each harness level: The total number of wires active in the connector.

The number of these wires that are standard (that is, that are always present regardless of optional content).

The number of these wires that are optioned (that is, that may vary dependent on the options in a particular vehicle).

  • For each option that has some impact on the connector contents: Which harness level supports this option.

The number of wires at the connector which are required to support this option (this is normally only an approximate figure showing the relative sizes of each option).

The system calculates the number of wires supporting each option column. This can be quite complex if the wire option expressions are complex. The system therefore determines whether the individual wires are present if only a particular option is in the vehicle. This can result in the following calculations:

  • If a wire has an OR option expression (for example, A or B), 'double accounting' occurs because the wire is added to both the A option and the B option.

  • If a wire has an AND expression (for example, A AND B), the wire is not added to any option. In effect, it is treated more like a standard wire.

  • If a wire has a NOT expression (for example, NOT A), the wire is again added to multiple option columns.

Note that wires with no option expression (that is, are standard) are not included in the count for each option.

Option expressions must exist on wires before you can generate a wire count report.
