Defining a Bundle Connection Point

This task explains how to define a bundle connection point on a device.
A bundle connection point is used to specify the position and the direction of the bundle segment connected to the device.
Open any document containing a device where you want to place a bundle connection point.

  1. Click Define Bundle Connection Point .

  2. Select the electrical device where you want the bundle connection point to be defined.

    The Bundle Connection Point Definition dialog box opens:

  3. Enter a value in the Name field.

  4. Select a Representation, for example a surface or a point...

  5. Set a Point constraint: select a point.
    This point will possibly be used as bundle segment extremity.

  6. Set an Initial Condition constraint: select a plane or an axis.
    This plane or axis will possibly be used to orientate the bundle segment.

  7. Click OK to validate.

    The specification tree is updated.

You can add bundle connection points to:

  • Equipment
