Creating a destination wiring element

Normally the standard symbols supplied with the destination wiring library cover all applications.  These symbols have been created in a 1.28mm grid and thus fit into the 2.5mm drawing grid which is normally used.

However, if you wish to create new destination wiring symbols, you must make sure that these T symbols (with 3 connection points) conform to the following rules:

Rule

According to standard practice, the incoming connection line always joins pin !1 and the outgoing one leaves pin !2.  The component to be connected is always attached to pin !a.

Example

Component name: T-piece down:  Destination1 left -> Destination2 right

Component connection  (Pin name !a)

Incoming connection from the left  (Pin name !1)

Outgoing connection to the right (Pin name !2)

Reference name  (!DW)

 

Tip

The shape and colour of the DW element should be drawn such that you can easily recognize both the common connection and the secondary connection.
