An incorrect wire-numbering means, somewhat simplified, that the ingoing and outgoing wire-numbers do not make sense. Within a sub-node, you might have multiple equal outgoing wire-numbers, multiple equal ingoing wire-numbers, outgoing wire-numbers not corresponding to ingoing wire-numbers, the other way around, or other similar errors. To view that kind of errors as “half wires” can be a good way of visualising them. (A "half wire" then means a wire with only one end, either only a beginning but not an end, or only an end but not a beginning).

 

When errors like these are presented in the wire list of Dynamic OnLine I, they are shown in that way, as “half wires”. Normally every row corresponds to a wire with outgoing (“from side”) on the left side and ingoing (“to side”) on the right. Errors are shown as wires that are only connected in one end, where only one connection point is present in each row. Furthermore, a special icon is used to clarify that we are indeed dealing with an error.

 

 

The figure above shows a simple case, a sub-node consisting of one single wire where outgoing and ingoing wire-numbers do not make sense - they do not match. Ingoing is DONALD and outgoing is DUCK. As you can see, this is shown on two separate rows.

 

Correcting errors of this kind directly in the wire list, can be done in more than one way. In the following sub-topics, a few possible ways are described.
