Single dynamic insertion

When you use this type of configuration file, the connector will automatically be drawn with one symbol.

The left part of the dialog box displays the configuration settings in 5 tabs. The right part shows a parameter preview.

General

This tab lets you name the configuration and enter a description in all software languages.

Size

When inserting, the connector symbol is automatically built with configuration parameters.

The fillet radius is equal to the space between 2 pins (2).

Size

Width: Enter the connector body width (1). You must combine this value with the fillet radius to get the total width of the connector.

Pins

Space between two pins: Enter the distance between two connection points (2). This value must correspond to the distance between 2 wire conductors.

Combs

A comb is a special graphic element that groups several circuits. To generate a comb, you must group circuits in the manufacturer part assigned to the connector.

Comb width: Enter the distance between the connection points and the comb (3).

Comb tooth width: Enter the horizontal line width of the comb (4).

Attributes

You can place attributes in the upper and lower part of the connector. These attributes are inserted in a specific symbol that you can edit.

Information (top)

Enter coordinates for the insertion point of the symbol containing the attributes, relative to the upper-left angle of the connector symbol (1) (2).

Information (bottom)

Enter coordinates for the insertion point of the symbol containing the attributes, relative to the bottom-left angle of the connector symbol (3) (4).

Connection points

Connection points are necessary to connect the symbol to the wire conductors.

When inserting, the connection points are automatically added to the connector symbol. You can edit the symbol to add specific attributes.

Circuits

When inserting, the managed circuits are made up of circuits from the manufacturer part. The list displayed in the dialog box depends on the circuits associated with the Connector class.

This feature lets you draw the type of pin in the connector symbol.

You can associate a symbol to each type of circuit that will be inserted in the connection point. You can also manage its insertion angle and scale factor.
