Adding Objects to Existing Cable Unit

Each object in the workspace / workdesk can be added to an already existing cable unit.

Prerequisite:

At least one cable unit must exist in the workspace / workdesk. If there is just one cable unit and only one object to be possibly added, the object is added to this cable unit directly. If there are multiple cable units, the cable unit to which the object is to be added must be selected.

  1. Right-click on an object, and select the (Add to cable unit) popup menu item.

    If there is only one cable unit and only one object to be possibly added, the object is added to it directly.

    If there are multiple cable units, the cable unit to which the object is to be added must be selected.

    Regardless of whether there is one or multiple cable units, the command bar is activated if there is more than one object that could possibly be added.
  2. Note:

    In the instance of a cable wire, the objects that could possibly be added are the connectable objects to which the cable is connected, labels, cable ties, and surface protections through which the cable is routed. You can toggle if these objects are to be added to the cable unit in the cable unit content of the command bar or if they are to be removed.

  3. In case the command bar is activated, click [OK].

    The objects are added to the cable unit.

Note:

To remove unwanted objects from the cable unit, select the object in the cable unit content of the command bar and click the (Remove from cable unit) button. The object is then no longer available in the cable unit content and thus not part of the cable unit any more.

Optionally click the (Check all) / (Uncheck all) buttons to toggle selection of all the objects at once.
