This feature allows you to set the cable properties that will be updated when synchronizing plant cables with reference cables. This synchronization takes place after:
-
comparing a plant and reference cable data for a single cable (this option becomes available if at least one of the properties of the associated reference cable has changed)
-
applying reference data to plant cables in batch mode
-
changing the associated reference cable of a particular plant cable.
To set cable properties for synchronization, do the following:
-
In Options Manager, select Options > Set Cable Properties for Synchronization.
-
On the Set Cable Properties for Synchronization dialog, select the check boxes next to the properties that you want to set for synchronization.
-
Select Apply and then Close when done.
Note that not all cable properties are available for selection in the grid, depending
on the property type. Some properties cannot be selected and some are selected all
the time.
-
Cable properties that are available for selection. These are shipped and user-defined cable properties and they will be synchronized after they are selected.
-
Hard-coded system properties which are always selected. These are shipped properties and they are always set for synchronization. You cannot clear these selections.
-
Cable properties that cannot be selected for synchronization. These properties are only displayed in the grid and they appear as unavailable for selection.
-
Some cable properties are hidden as they are not applicable for synchronization.
