Arranging the Diagram

The default arrangement for the graphic diagram is a straight line from left to right. You can change it to one of three other arrangements, or you can manually rearrange the components.

To change the structure of the diagram, choose one of the following:

Step 1 Place your mouse over the Arrange link to open a floating menu.

Step 2 Click on one of the structures shown in the menu. The images and connecting lines will change to reflect that structure. 



- OR -

Step 3 Rearrange the diagram manually using the drag-and-drop function to move the images around on the screen. The connecting lines will automatically move with the component illustrations. This capability is often used to arrange the components to replicate their actual physical layout.

A manual rearrangement of the diagram remains only while you keep the window open. Once you close that Circuit Trace window, the diagram will resume the default structure.

Viewing a Component's Detail

From the Circuit Trace window, you can open a pop-up window displaying the Detail View information for any component shown in this window.

Viewing a component's Details View information

Step 1 Click the component's ID link in the box containing its illustration. Step 2 A pop-up window will appear, displaying the Detail View for that item.

Changing the Trace Point

You can change the trace point from within the diagram by choosing another port or pair/strand for any component. This will change the information on the table and the diagram.

Step 1 In any of the illustration boxes, click either the ports or pairs/strands link for that item.

Step 2 A drop-down menu of all ports and/or pairs/strands connected to that component will be displayed, including which ones are taken and which are available. Click on the link for the one you want to trace from.

Step 3 With the new port or pair/strand as the trace point, the table and diagram will change to show all components of that circuit to its endpoints.

You can also open a new trace point table/diagram in a pop-up window to see the different paths side-by-side. To do so, hold down the Shift key as you click on the link in Step 2.
