The main purpose of the Wire-list Editor is to enable manipulation of wires in several ways. For example, you can change the wiring sequence and you can change connection properties such as wire-number, colour, and dimension. Cable cores (marked CABLE in the list) are not relevant in that context, and or displayed as reference only. You can easily hide them if you like.
In a large project, the wire-list may be long and difficult to find your way in. Therefore, you can choose to display only the connections that you are interested in for the moment. Several methods are available for that purpose. Please refer to a sub-topic named Filtering (which connections to display) for a description of those.
Wire-numbers that already exist in the project, will be included in the wire-list. If no wire-numbering has been performed, neither manually nor automatically, the wire-number column for wire-numbers will be empty.
Icons to the left in the table indicate where the sub-nodes begin and end. The sub-nodes are numbered from 1 and upwards. Each sub-node constitutes a so-called wire-chain where one wire follows directly after another in a chain, for instance from –F1:1 to –F2:1, and from there further to for instance –F4:1. This gives a wire-chain, which then consists of three connection points and two wires.
In the wire-list, you can control the wiring sequence within the wire-chains. Furthermore, you can perform a wire-numbering where you assign wire-numbers to each wire. This can be done automatically, to an arbitrary degree. You also have the possibility to adjust wire properties such as dimension, colour, node name, and signal name for each wire. Such information is then transferred to so-called wire-number symbols in the circuit diagrams.
The figure below shows the wire-list in the way it can look when all wires numbered and ready.
