12 If appropriate, click the Properties button to view the properties for the
cable.
13 Click OK.
14 In the browser, expand the harness assembly and the Cables folder to
view the added cable and cable wires in the hierarchy.
In the browser, cable wires are named with the Cable ID followed by the
conductor ID, and the conductor ID in parentheses. Cable wire names
are changed by modifying the Wire ID in the Cable Wire Properties dialog
box. You cannot remove the conductor ID in parentheses.
Moving Wires and Cables
From within a harness assembly, a wire or cable can have one or both of its
ends moved and reterminated to different pins. Both routed and unrouted
wires and cables can be changed.
