Edit Types
2 minute read
In the title bar the dialogs for editing the types can be opened.
Edit Cable Types
The dialog to edit the cable types is opened within the Infrastructure Editor - via and the selection Edit Cable Types.
All connections created in Docusnap have a basic type. Cable types can only be wired with a plug that shares the same base types.
The number of possible ports per side can be defined by means of the number of A/B plugs.
Edit Plug Types
The dialog to edit the plugs types is opened within the Infrastructure Editor - via and the selection Edit Plug Types.
All plugs created in Docusnap have a base type. Only plugs that share the same base types can be wired to each other. The different plugs can be assigned to several basic types. E.g. SFP + corresponds to the type “Network” as well as “Fibre-optic”.
The PlugCount specifies the number of possible connections per plug. This is required if several connections are possible with one port, e.g. with a TERA cabling.
Edit Category
When creating new shapes, a category must be selected. If an additional category is needed, it can be added in the Edit Categories dialog. Categories included in Docusnap by default cannot be edited or deleted.
Edit Base Types
Base types are required when creating connector and cable types to ensure that only cables and connectors that fit together are connected. If additional base types are required, they can be added in the Edit Base Types dialog. Base types that are provided by Docusnap by default cannot be edited or deleted.
