The NX interface supports Routing Electrical features. PARTsolutions parts accordingly classified (see Section 5.13.10.3, “Classification of Electrical Connections [CNS_CP|4|3])”) have their Multi Ports marked with the double arrow symbol (just like parts manually created in NX).
On the part of PARTsolutions Anchor points [56] are classified as Mounting Points (see Section 5.13.10.4, “Classify Mounting Points (Mounting Point [CNS_CP|4|6] and Mounting Description [CNS_CP|4|7])”). Currently[57] the classification information is not yet set in NX.
Under Application -> Electrical -> More -> Qualify Part, you can find the Multi Ports listed.
Terminal data (classification attributes) of the single sub-ports are appended to a Multi Port.
When selecting a Multi Port you can open the dialog box Characteristics via context menu command Object Characteristics. Here you can find a listing of the classification attributes. Only attributes with existing mapping will appear.
The mapping between NX
attributes and PSOL attributes can be found in the configuration file
ifugnx.cfg, in the following
blocks:
The attributes of the class CNS_CP|4|3 (Electrical Connection) are listed in the dialog box Class variables.
Example: The NX attribute "CUT_BACK_LENGTH" corresponds to the PSOL attribute "000036001" (Connection Insulation Stripped Length)
For Routing Electrical the terminal data such as connection points, names of the single sub-ports of a Multi Port are available.
-
Up-to-date CNS classification (only concerns the classifying of parts)
If needed - update the CNS classification via PARTadmin -> Catalog update -> Online.
-
Corresponding keys in the configuration file
ifugnx.cfghave to be activated. This are keys from the blocks with category "hasConnPointElectricalClass". In addition, in the block "Categories", the keys "hasElectricalClass" and "hasConnPointElectricalClass" have to be activated in particular. Possibly the latter two manually in the configuration file itself. -
When selecting a new part choose the template for Routing Electrical.
-
In order to display the double arrows following has to be set:
refset_00=default:Entire Part
-
In order to display the Multi Ports in the Qualify Part dialog, select the lowest part level and perform a double-click. The ports are only defined on part level.
