Wire-number binding

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Wire-number binding means that you use a normal wire-numbering where wire-number symbols will assign the wiring sequence in the current node. Even cable cores will then be assigned wire-numbers. Since the cable cores are in fact cable cores (!), they of course are no wires, and hence their wire-numbers are not real wire-numbers, but instead something called “symbolic wire-numbers”. Their function is only to control the wiring sequence, and to make a reference to the cable core symbol. These symbolic wire-numbers are most suitably set to something that differs from the real wire-numbers, for instance, a, b, c, d, and so forth.

 

In the cable core symbol, you specify which symbolic wire-number the cable core should correspond to, by entering the symbolic wire-number in the wire-number binding attribute, which is accessed using the Edit all attributes... button.
