Dynamic connectors

- [Justin] Very similar to our dynamic PLC tool, we also have a dynamic connector insertion tool. This is because connectors just like our PLCs have a very large number of pins that will often be broken up over multiple pages. Thus the ability to split up these symbols easily is very useful. So again, lets take a look at inserting a connector here, into our project. Just the same as with our PLC I can do this just as I would any other component. So I can just go to schematic, insert symbol, and browse for a connector symbol. Looking through my classifications I have connectors here and a whole bunch of different connector symbols; you know 5 pins, 7 pins, 10 pins. Whatever it may be. Or individual pins. So this of course is a great option for me and a lot of people might just use the default, prebuilt connectors here. Again these are my static tools. But I do have the ability to insert dynamic connector symbol as well. So say for example our connector, instead of having five or six…
