ComplexLoad

A cable complex load component.

Example

application = cf.Application.getInstance()
project = application:Load({FEKO_HOME..[[/shared/Resources/Automation/Cables.cfx]]})

    -- Add 'CableComplexLoad' with 50 Ohms real and -25 Ohms imaginary impedance

cableHarness = project.Contents.CableHarnesses["CableHarness1"]
cableHarnessView = application.MainWindow.MdiArea:CreateCableSchematicView(cableHarness)

terminal1 = cableHarness.Connectors["CableConnector2"].Pins["Pin2"].Terminal
terminal2 = cableHarness.Connectors["CableConnector2"].Pins["Pin1"].Terminal
resistor = cableHarness.CableSchematic.Components:AddComplexLoad(terminal1, terminal2, 50, 25)

    -- Change the load's real impedance to 75 Ohms

cableHarness.CableSchematic.Components["Z1"].ImpedanceReal = 75

Inheritance

The ComplexLoad object is derived from the Object object.

Usage locations

The ComplexLoad object can be accessed from the following locations:

Property List

ComplexLoadType
Select whether to use a complex number or a single port Touchstone file. (Read/Write ComplexLoadTypeEnum)
CurrentProbeEnabled
True if a current probe must be applied to the component. (Read/Write boolean)
Filename
The Touchstone file. This is only valid if the CableComplexLoadType has the type SinglePortTouchstone. (Read/Write FileReference)
ImpedanceImaginary
The imaginary impedance of the complex load. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
ImpedanceReal
The real impedance of the complex load. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
Label
The object label. (Read/Write string)
Schematic
The schematic associated with this item. (Read only Schematic)
SchematicLocation
The location of the item on the schematic. (Read only GridLocation)
SchematicRotation
The rotation of the item on the schematic. (Read only SymbolRotationEnum)
Terminals
The schematic terminals on this item. (Read only List of Terminal)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)
VoltageProbeEnabled
True if a current probe must be applied to the component. (Read/Write boolean)

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.)
RotateSchematicSymbol ()
Rotates the item on the schematic.
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.
SetSchematicLocation (location GridLocation)
Sets the location of the item on the schematic.
SetSchematicRotation (rotation SymbolRotationEnum)
Sets the rotation of the item on the schematic.

Static Function List

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