4 Cabinet Routing Attributes
The assistant Cabinet Routing uses attributes for wiring, which contain information about devices, wires and cable channels.
The following attributes are accessed.
Object |
Attribute and AID |
Description and admissible values |
Pin |
Position X AID = 490 |
Optional: The positions X, Y, Z will be calculated, if there are no entries for the attributes. In the project properties/wiring the following values are predefined. Alphanumerical Pins will be connected at top center direction ‘North’. Numerical pins with even numbers will be connected at top center direction ‘North’. Numerical pins with uneven numbers will be connected at bottom center direction ‘South’. |
Pin |
Position Y AID = 491 |
Optional: See Position X. If you make an input here, then the way the Y position will be determined depends if the attribute Reference Point exists and has been filled. Reference Point existing and filled: the Y position will be determined starting from the edge of the shape Top/Left or Bottom/Left Reference Point does not exist or has not been filled: the Y position will be determined in the following way: · With wiring direction North: starting from the upper edge of the shape. · With wiring direction South: starting from the lower edge of the shape |
Pin |
Position Z AID = 492 |
Optional: See Position X |
Pin |
Wiring Direction AID = 10222 |
Optional: The pin's wiring direction, North = at top, South = at the bottom. If no entry exists, then the values from Project properties/Routing will be used. Please use the system dictionary for entries, otherwise the entries are not accepted from the Routing assistant. |
Pin |
Reference Point AID = 27868 |
Optional: Enter the reference point for wiring. Possible input is Top/Left and Bottom/Left. If the attribute is being used, then the wiring direction may be changed without altering the geographical position of the pin in the model. The input is expected in the form of system dictionary texts, otherwise the Routing assistant will not recognize them. |
Wire |
Routing Information AID = 394 |
Contains the calculated cable duct designations, separated by commas. |
Wire |
Coordinates AID = 394 |
Contains the routed wire coordinates, separated by commas. |
Wire |
Length AID = 10193 |
The calculated length of the wire. |
Wire |
Signal Type (EMC) AID = 10129 |
Optional: Signal Type of the wire. Wires can be excluded for specified cable ducts. See also attribute 'Not permitted Signal Types (EMC)' at a cable duct. |
Wire |
Wiringdirection 1 AID = 10901 |
Possible range: Upward, Downward, Left, Right and combinations: Upward, right; Upward, left; Downward, right; Downward, left. |
Wire |
Wiringdirection 2 AID = 10902 |
Possible range: Upward, Downward, Left, Right and combinations: Upward, right; Upward, left; Downward, right; Downward, left |
Wire / Object |
Exclude from routing AID = 10652 |
Using this check-box wires or items can be excluded from routing. |
Device |
Position Z AID = 492 |
Distance of the device to the mounting plate. |
Device |
Width AID = 245 |
Width of the device. |
Device |
Height AID = 246 |
Height of the device. |
Device |
Depth AID = 247 |
Depth of the device. |
Cable Duct |
Filling rate in % AID = 10653 |
Contains the filling rate in % of the cable duct calculated with the diameter of the routed wires. |
Cable Duct |
Not permitted Signal Types (EMC) AID = 262 |
Optional: Wires of specific signal types can be excluded from the routing through cable ducts. |
