Hardware Architecture Context Menus

Common Commands

This section lists the commands, which are common to one or more objects.

Select Reference in Tree: Selects the reference of the selected element in the tree.

Select in Active View: Selects the instance in the diagram view.

Topology and Rack

Create Topology: Creates hardware topologies used to describe the functions of your network and to insert EE components and channels in your topology.; See Creating Topologies.

Create Rack: Creates hardware racks used to describe the functions of your network and to insert EE components and channels in your rack.; See Creating Racks.

Create EE Component: Creates an EE component (ECU, actuator, sensor, electrical device, other) to be instantiated in your hardware architecture.

Create Subsystem: Creates a subsystem from a topology or from an EE component.; See Creating a Subsystem.

Insert Subsystems: Inserts subsystems into the topology or into a reference EE component.; See Inserting Subsystems.

Insert Racks: Inserts racks into the topology.; See Inserting Racks.

Create Channel: Creates a bus or a wire to be instantiated in your hardware architecture.

Connect Topology: Connects the elements of the hardware architecture.

Create Delegations: Creates delegation connections between the hardware architecture and the components of the hardware architecture.

EE Component

Note: The creation commands under this section, create reference EE components. If invoked from a hardware architecture, the created reference is also instantiated in the hardware architecture. See Creating EE Components.

Create ECU: Creates an ECU reference component.

Insert ECUs: Instantiates ECUs in the hardware architecture.

Create Actuator: Creates an actuator reference component.

Insert Actuators: Instantiates actuators in the hardware architecture.

Create Sensor: Creates a sensor reference component.

Insert Sensors: Instantiates sensors in the hardware architecture.

Create Electrical Device: Creates a reference electrical device.

Insert Electrical Devices: Instantiates electrical devices in the hardware architecture.

Create Device: Creates a reference device component.

Insert Devices: Instantiates devices in the hardware architecture.

Create Switch: Creates a switch reference component.

Insert Switches: Instantiates switches in the hardware architecture.

Create Bus Channel: Creates a bus channel reference.

Insert Buses: Instantiates buses in the hardware architecture.

Create Wired Channel: Creates a wired channel reference.

Insert Wires: Instantiates wires in the hardware architecture.

Create Generic Channel: Creates a generic channel reference.

Insert Generics: Instantiates generics in the hardware architecture.

Add EE Component to Virtual Link Exits: Assigns an EE component as an exit of a virtual link.; See Editing Virtual Links.

Remove EE Component Instance: Removes the selected EE component instance from the hardware architecture.

Connect EE Component Instance: Creates a connection from a selected EE component to a target component.

Create Delegations in Parent Topology: Creates delegation connections between the hardware architecture and the EE component.

Subsystem

Remove Subsystem: Removes the selected subsystem from its parent system.

Connect Subsystem: Connects a subsystem to its EE parent component.; See Connecting a Subsystem to its Parent.

Create Delegations in Parent Topology: Creates delegation connections between the hardware architecture and the EE component.

Connect Topology: Connects the elements of the subsystem to other elements.

Create Delegations: Creates delegation connections between the hardware architecture and the subsystem.

Port

Remove Port: Removes the selected port from the EE component.

Connect Topology Port: Connects the selected port to the port of a target EE component.

Virtual Link

Route Virtual Link: Routes a virtual link on a network.; See Routing Private Virtual Links on a Network.

Edit Virtual Link Path Constraints: Edits the timing constraints of a virtual link path.; See Editing Virtual Link Path Constraints.

Remove Channel Instance: Removes the selected channel instance from the hardware architecture.

Connect Channel Instance: Connects a channel instance.

Network

Edit Network: Edits the paths and options of a network.; See Creating Options and Paths.

Route Virtual Links: Routes virtual links on the selected network.; See Routing Private Virtual Links on a Network.

Unroute Virtual Links: Unroutes the virtual links from the selected network.

Delete Network: Deletes the selected network from the hardware architecture.

Connection

Select Connection Ports: Selects the ports of the selected connection.

Remove Connection: Removes the selected connection.

Connector Type

Create Connector Type: Creates a connector type used to define the interface between two components from a selected type.; Optionally, enter a technology name. For example, you can enter Power.

Create Generic Type: Creates a generic type.; See Creating Generic Types.

Subconnector

Create Subconnector Type: Creates a reference subconnector type.
