How is conduit added to stranding?
Also, how do you designate that the designed coax is actually in the conduit?
Follow these steps to add conduit to stranding:
- Right-click a strand and select Conduit on the Context Wheel.
-
Choose a conduit type from the list and click once on the
up arrow to its left to place one conduit. Click OK.
-
View information for the added conduit on the Component
tab, under Conduits. If other conduit exists, it will also be listed
here. The color of the circle to the left of the conduit information
reflects the color of the cable line in the map. Additionally,
an empty colored circle indicates that cable has not yet been assigned
to the conduit. If there are multiple conduits, each will have its
own color. The highlight color in the map will change when different
conduits are selected.
-
You can delete conduit by clicking the red X to the right
of its description.
Follow these steps to associate cable with a conduit:
-
On the Component tab, click the desired cable under
the Direct Bury Cables section.
-
Drag and drop the cable onto your chosen conduit.
The colored circle to the left of the conduit information displays
with a dot in the middle, indicating that cable has been assigned
to conduit.
-
Likewise, you can click the cable, drag it from the
conduit, and drop it back into the Direct Bury Cables section to remove
it from the conduit.
Conduit that contains cable appears in the map with dashed lines above and below it:
After you drag and drop a cable onto conduit, those dashed lines in the map turn into solid bold lines.
