4               Sub Segments

If a position point is placed on a segment, the segment will be split into sub segments.

1.      Sub segments are created below the parent segment in the topology Folder

2.      The sub segments will hold the destinations, not the parent segment

3.       Cable / wires are routed through the sub segments

4.      Segment diameter, bending radius and weight will be transferred from the sub segments to the parent segment.

5.      The total weight of the sub segments will be transferred to the parent segment

6.      The maximum diameter and bending radius of the sub segments will be transferred to the parent Segment.

7.      If no length is defined at the parent segment, the total length of the sub segments will be transferred to the parent segment. If the length of the parent segment is not identical with the total length of the sub segments, a warning appears in the report.
