Add Connectors and Wires when Creating a Connection

When creating or editing a connection in your harnesses, you can now directly add a Connector, Splice, Terminal, or Loose Wire End in the From/To options. This is shown in the red box below, and can be used to more quickly design your schematics. In the same manner, you can also add a new Wire or Cable to your harness when selecting your conductor.

In addition, you can now see the Part Numbers of your components to more quickly create connections. This is shown in the blue box below.

Updated Wire Cutlists

Now you will also see the Gauge and wire Color in the generated cutlists making it easier to build your harness.

Double click to Edit Reference Designators & Bundle Lengths

You can now edit bundle lengths and Connector/Terminal reference designators by double clicking the text in the Drawing area. Doing so will provide you with the dialogs below, and will automatically update your harness everywhere.

Misc Shortcuts & UI Enhancements

We’re working to make the RapidHarness even easier to use. As such, we’ve introduced the following updates to help you work faster.

• You can now use the delete key to delete designs in the Design Assembly
• You can now right click on the Wires & Cables folder and select “Delete Unused...” to delete any unused conductors
• Select “Reuse Cavity” to reuse a connector cavity when creating a new connection
• Ctrl+R can now be used to quickly launch the Version Design dialog
