The connector browser draws list information from the connector manager, the databases of parts management and WSCAD codes. It can be called directly via the menu Automatic / Connector chart / Browser (compact and professional) or the connector manager, as well as with a click of the right mouse button on a connector symbol and the subsequently displayed parameter menu Browser.

 

View

For each reference, both connectors and existing sockets are always displayed with part number and color code on the left side in the browser. You can recognize this by the little plus sign with which you can resolve the representation. On the right side, you can see all the connector or socket contacts of the selected reference name.

 

 

Browser menus – Change, View, Output and Settings

Part number starts parts database with the selected connectors or sockets. Here you can select a new part and then copy it with OK. Color code starts a selection dialog with the color codes. Here you can select a new code and copy it with OK.

 

 

 

 

 

Other functions

Left side reference view:

 

 

 

 

Right side view of individual conductor

 

 

Here you can see that the currently assigned number is 6 (-> 6) and that the red connector names are occupied. If you select an occupied connector name, they will be exchanged. If you select a free number, this number will be used instead.

 

 

Serial numbering

The field Number on the right side of the browser can be numbered automatically if online connector management is switched off. This enables a number-related representation in the circuit chart without using the color code of the database. This is also possible in the compact version.

 

Click on the first number and then, while pressing the Ctrl key, on the last number that is to be numbered. All the other numbers in between will now be marked. If you now activate the box serial numbering, the numbers are always counted by 1 up (connector+socket).

 

 

If you have not activated the option Same number in the menu, connector and socket will be serially numbered unless you use the box Number in pairs.
