Creating plug and socket parameters

Before the plugs and sockets can be assigned to the Word components, these must first be created as parameters:

  1. Select the Parameter unit in T_Mechatronic_ModularSystem.
  2. Right-click and select New > Parameter in the shortcut menu.
  3. Enter Plug in the Name field.
  4. Enter Plug as the Type. The type can either be found by using the Finder or be entered directly.
  5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 for the parameter with Socket as the name and type.
