Cable Properties

Adds, modifies, and removes properties on selected library cable occurrences.

Access:

With an active harness assembly, right-click a cable wire occurrence, and then select Harness Properties.

Occurrence Tab

Cable ID	Displays the cable ID, which is the unique name for the cable occurrence within the assembly. It is also the name used in the browser. Changing the ID in either location updates the ID in the other location.
Length	Displays the current cable length. The length of an unrouted cable is the length of the longest cable wire. For routed cables, the length is the length of the segment path the cable takes, plus the length of any exposed wire pieces, plus the longest cable wire stub from each end of the cable.
Adjusted Length	Displays the length, plus the value of the property that affects it. For example, if the Service Loop property exists for a segment through which the selected cable is routed, the length is adjusted accordingly and displayed here.
Radius of Smallest Bend	Displays the radius of the smallest bend in the path of a routed cable. Associated to the current geometric shape of the cable.
Bend Radius	Displays or sets the bend radius multiplier. If the library level bend radius value is replaced by the occurrence, the bend radius field is displayed as light blue. Calculate from Wires applies the bend radius multiplier to the calculated diameter.
Library Bend Radius	When bend radius is replaced by the occurrence, displays the initial bend radius set on the library cable.
Display	Sets rendered or centerline display for the selected cable. Centerline Rendered

General tab

Displays the cable's library name and category, part number, and outer diameter.

Wires tab

Lists the conductor ID, appearance, and gauge for each cable wire.

Custom tab

Name	Displays the entered property name. Click in the input area to enter a new property, or if available, click the arrow to select from the list.
	The predefined, or reserved properties include:
	Class Categorizes wires and segments into class groupings for comparison.
	Max Length The maximum allowable length for wire.
Type	Data type for the selected property. Click the arrow to select an appropriate data type from the list.
Value	Enter a value for the selected property, if needed.
Add	Adds a new property to the list.
Modify	Changes the selected property's name, type, or value.
Delete	Removes the selected property from the list.
