Naming Cables Owned by Multi-cable

Cables owned by Multi-cable are named automatically and the names can not be edited directly. The names are consisting of three parts:

•

Name of owning Multi-cable

•

Delimiter - configurable by SCDELIM attribute of Multi-cable

•

Ordinal character (numeric or alpha)

Ordinal character is controlled by SCALPHA and SCDIGITS attributes in the following way: SCALPHA determines whether ordinal character should be numeric (SCAPHA=false) of alphabetic (SCALPHA=true).


Attribute	Value
SCMCAB NAME	/XYZ
SCDELIM	'-'
SCALPHA	false
SCDIGITS	2

Result Cable names:


Element	Name
SCCAB1	/XYZ-01
SCCAB2	/XYZ-02


Attribute	Value
SCMCAB NAME	/XYZ_1
SCDELIM	Unset
SCALPHA	true
SCDIGITS	2 (ignored when SCALPHA=true)

Result Cable names:


Element	Name
SCCAB1	/XYZ_1A
SCCAB2	/XYZ_1B

Note:

The names of cables owned by Multi-cable will be generated automatically only when the name of the Multi-cable itself is set.

Note:

Each time SCDELIM, SCALPHA or SCDIGITS (when SCAPHA=false) is changed, the names of cables will be redefined.
