Introduction |
This page contains description for various connectors. Each of the sections contains a sample of the symbol that is driven by the selectors in the configuration table. This allows you to try out the various control parameters and see what will actually be drawn. The control parameters in the table are also used to generate an example code at the bottom of the section. The code that is listed is the exact code needed to draw the example.

Off Page Arrow |
Description: Draw a Input or Output or BiDirectional Symbol that can be positioned "Right" or "Left". A "Signal Name" and a "Zone" reference can be attached to the symbol. This symbol is commonly used for declaring a signal wire on one drawing page that is picked up on one, or more, other pages. To symbolize the transition a signal from a PC board to wire, you can use "two" "In/Out Symbols" or use a single "Board IO" below.
