Pin List |
Displays all available pins to be assigned to the parametrically-built connector. The number in parenthesis () indicates the single or pair of pins for the connector. The first column is the value assigned to TERM01 or TERM01P while the second column assigns its number to TERM02 or TERM02J. Select the pin from the list to populate the grid. The Pin list table in the catalog database (default_cat.mdb) supports connectors drawn in the ladder diagram or connector diagram schematics. |
x |
Displays an 'x' for all pins that are displayed since they are part of the connector and not selected on the block being edited (the pins may be on a different drawing or part of another symbol). Only the pin numbers associated to the block selected are editable; the controls at the bottom of the dialog box are disabled if a pin with an 'x' is selected from the list. |
