The splice (1) is shown in the following image.

Modify Splices
After you place the splice, you can:
■ Add wires to the splice manually or by importing a wire list.
■ Add or modify Custom properties on the splice occurrence or splice pins.
You cannot change splice pin names or default properties on the splice.
Default properties must be changed on the splice definition in the library.
■ Redefine the splice location.
■ Delete the splice.
Splice Wires or Add Wires to the Splice
To visualize the best placement of the splice in the harness, place the splice
on the wires before redefining the splice onto the segment.
1 In the browser or graphics window click the splice, right-click, and then
select Splice Wire on the context menu.
2 Click Wire 2, the wire to splice.
