View Full Version : Jumpers and wire annotation

Hi,

I have some problems when I need to show wire annotation on terminal strip. The software does not seems to consider the jumper between two terminals of the same wire, so I get a wire annotation that goes from the first terminal to the other one that is just side by side. Does anyone knows how to eliminate this annotation when I use a jumper?

Thanks,
Charles

Could you include a picture of what is occurring and what results you would like to see? I do not currently use jumpers but will look into this issue.

Thanks for your answer RenetaP!

Here's a picture of what is wrong with the wire annotation when I use jumpers. If you look at the terminal strip P1_DIST with terminal 13212 and N. The wire annotation on the right side are referencing on the terminal strip itsefl. The annotation is "wire number / part destination / pin destination.

For me this is representing a wire that goes from a terminal to the terminal next to it instead of a jumpers.

Do you understand what I mean?

This is way beyond my use of terminals and I am unable to incorporate jumpers into my design at this time. I have done some research on Autodesk: Discussion Group under Manufacturing Community. There are some threads listed on the use of the TSE and jumpers. Maybe you could find some answers there. Sorry I could not help. Yet thanks for the opportunity to do some digging.

I added some pictures and a link to the thread on the attached word document.
