CableSignal

The cable signal.

Example

app = cf.GetApplication()
project = app:OpenFile(FEKO_HOME..[[/shared/Resources/Automation/Cables.cfx]])

    -- Get an existing 'CableHarness'

cableHarness = project.Cables.Harnesses["CableHarness1"]

    -- Get a 'CableInstance'

cableInstance = cableHarness.CableInstances["Cable1"]

    -- Set a signal on the 'CableInstance' to none

cableInstance.Signals[1].Destination = cf.CableConnectorPin.CreateNonePin()

    -- Change the signal name

cableInstance.Signals[1].Name = "UnconnectedSignal"

    -- Swap source connection pins

cableInstance.Signals[1].Source = cableHarness.Connectors["CableConnector1"].Pins["Pin2"]
cableInstance.Signals[2].Source = cableHarness.Connectors["CableConnector1"].Pins["Pin1"]

Inheritance

The CableSignal object is derived from the Object object.

Usage locations

The CableSignal object can be accessed from the following locations:

Property List

Destination
The destination connector pin this signal is attached to. (Read/Write CableConnectorPin)
Label
The object label. (Read/Write string)
Source
The source connector pin this signal is attached to. (Read/Write CableConnectorPin)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)

Method List

Delete ()
Deletes the entity.
Duplicate ()
Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
GetProperties ()
Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
SetProperties (properties Object)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.

Static Function List

GetDefaultProperties ()
Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
