-
Click Length Tolerance
in the Length Management toolbar (Length
Management sub-toolbar). -
In the flattened harness, select an object.
You can select any of the following objects: - Device: the device is selected
- Support: the nearest bundle segment extremity or route definition point is selected
- Protection Extremity: the nearest protection extremity is selected
- Bundle Segment Extremity: device connection point / branch point
-
The first click tags the object as Fix in the geometry. Selecting another object in the geometry tags it as Move.
- Devices are always tagged as Move.
- You can double-click any of the tags to swap their positions.
The Length Tolerance dialog box is also displayed.
-
Enter a positive value or a negative value in the Value field to specify a positive or negative tolerance value.
You can also enter a equation directly into the Value field. For example, 80mm - 77.158mm and click anywhere outside dialog box to see result 02.842mm before clicking OK. -
Click OK. The bundle segment length is increased or decreased by the value specified.
The specification tree shows the applied length tolerance to Bundle Segment.2. -
Right-click the bundle segment and select Properties.
The Properties dialog box shows that the Length Tolerance parameter is set to true.
- You can apply more than one length tolerance value to the same bundle segment. However, it must be applied over different portions of the same bundle segment (not overlapping).
- You can apply length tolerance to a flattened harness that has been extracted from 3D harness.
- If a bundle segment, support, and/or protective covering are removed during the synchronization, and if a length tolerance was linked to any of these removed elements, the effect of the tolerance will be removed.
- You cannot scale a bundle segment to which length tolerance has been applied.
