When the cable fill is not automatically computed or cannot be synchronized, click Tools > Utility > Update Cable Fill to update the cable fill manually. An example where cable fill is not automatically computed is when cable definition is modified in the Catalog or Reference Data. The Update Cable Fill command is enabled only when you are in the Electrical task.
The Update Cable Fill command recomputes:
-
The cable fill for all the selected raceways (by directly selecting the cable trays or conduits) or all the raceways under the selected parent systems.
-
The cable fill for the specific raceway features through which the selected cables are routed.
If you do not select anything before clicking the Update Cable Fill command, the software updates the cable fill for the entire workspace. The cable fill calculations for the entire workspace might take more time.
