Scenario
Piping and Cabling Systems Incorporated (PCSI) is a supplier of fluid and gas piping systems to many industries.
It designs and manufactures fluid and gas piping systems, including the associated electrical control and cabling
systems.
You work in a cross-functional team of engineers involved in the design of electrical harness systems. You are
working on a new manifold piping system, which involves the design of wiring diagrams and the design of
associated electrical harness designs that form part of the manifold control panel. This project takes you through
the activities associated with the development of the wiring diagram and the design of the electrical harness.
Task 1. Inspect the electrical cabinet assembly.
1. Enable only the following Datum Display types: .
2. Notice the electrical control modules and meters inside the electrical cabinet.
3. Notice the red emergency button on cabinet exterior, as well as the red, yellow, and green lights.

CABLING_SKEL.PRT sublayer.
Figure 10
17. Create a new layer named AXES_ROUTING.
18. Add datum axis ROUTE to the layer.
Click New Layer before placing the external item.
19. Add axes ROUTE_1 and ROUTE_2 to the layer.
Select the existing layer AXES_ROUTING for each and place the item.
20. Hide the AXES_ROUTING layer.
Figure 11
Be careful to add the datum axes to the layer, not the datum axis tags.
Task 3. Assemble the connectors and components to the cabling assembly.

green module on the left first, followed by the green module on the right.
6. Assemble the CONN_2_MS.PRT to the two coordinate systems on the sides of the brown manual
switch.
Figure 14
When viewing the model in the 3D_2 view orientation, use New Location to assemble to the

◾ L-03 to the green lamp connector
◾ SW-01 to the large red emergency button connector
◾ MS-1 to the connector on the left, on the brown switch component
4. Rename the REF_DES column of the Cabling Parameters appropriately for each connector.
Figure 15
Figure 16
Specify all available entry ports for each connector, unhiding the CSYS_WIRE-PORTS layer as
necessary.
Specify an internal length of 2.0 and the ROUND port type for each designated connector.
Remember to toggle Ref Designator Labels on to view the labels in the graphics window.
5. Manually designate the CM-01 reference designator to the connector on the green control module on
the left.
Specify entry ports 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, P, N, G, and S, unhiding the CSYS_WIRE-PORTS layer as

necessary.
Specify an internal length of 2.0 and the ROUND port type.
6. Manually designate the CM-02 reference designator to the connector on the green control module on
the right.
Specify entry port ENTRY, unhiding the coordinate system in the model as necessary.
Specify an internal length of 2.0 and the FLAT port type.
7. Rename the REF_DES column of the Cabling Parameters appropriately.
Figure 17
Figure 18
8. Manually designate the PB-01 reference designator to the power box assembly.
Specify entry ports P, N, G, and S. It may be easier to select these coordinate systems from the
model tree.
Specify an internal length of 2.0 and the WIRE port type.
It is possible to directly select the entry ports because they are assembly features.
Figure 19
Figure 20
Relays are assemblies that contain parts that serve as connectors, so we must designate using
subconnectors.
10. In the model tree, expand the first RELAY.ASM and manually designate the COIL-1.PRT, NCC-1.PRT,
and NOC-1.PRT parts as you would any connector.
Specify entry ports ENTRY_1 and ENTRY_2 for each model, using the model tree.
Specify an internal length of 0 and the ROUND port type.
11. Manually designate the RL-01 reference to the first instance of the RELAY.ASM from the model tree.
Specify subconnector members COIL-1.PRT, NCC.PRT, and NOC.PRT.
Click Add SubConn from the menu manager.
12. Repeat this same procedure to manually designate the RL-02 reference to the second RELAY.ASM in
the model tree.
Figure 21
Figure 22
14. At this time you are done designating references.
15. Notice that the reference designator labels for RL-01, RL-02, and PB-01 display at a default location
with no leaders.
Figure 23
16. Move the reference designator labels to the approximate locations shown. Move the other reference
designator labels as desired.
Figure 24
Edit the selection filter to Annotation, select a label, then right-click and select Move to move
the label.
Leaders are not created for designated assembly connectors. You will create leaders for
assembly connectors later in the project on the drawing. If desired, you could delete the
annotations and create new ones with leaders.
17. In the model tree, add the Designation column from the Cable Info Type.
Click Settings and select Tree Columns.
18. Notice that the designations for the components are now visible.
Figure 25
Task 5. Create the harness part.
1. Create a harness named HARNESS_1.PRT using the MM_KG_SEC_PART.PRT template. The Type
should be Part, and the Sub-type should be Harness.
2. Hide the four datum features in HARNESS_1.PRT.
3. Save the display status of the model and save the CABLING.ASM assembly.
Task 6. Create the spools.
1. Read in all 16 spools from the working directory.
