Creating Logical Connections

Between two logical components, you can create a logical connection, i.e. a link between two logical ports displayed in 2D and materializing the exchange of the ports.

Before you begin: In Me > Preferences > Infrastructure > Functional & Logical Design > General, select the Create Ports option in the Connection Creation Default Mode area.
  1. Select a first logical component (the emitter logical component).
    A connection line appears under your pointer.
  2. Select a second logical component (the consumer logical component).
  3. In the System Type Association dialog box, select one of these options:
    • No System Type

      By default, this option is selected.

    • Associate Existing System Type
    • Associate New System Type
  4. For the purpose of this scenario, select Associate New System Type, and then click Next.
  5. In the Logical Connection tab:
    1. In the Title box, enter the title to be displayed in the tree and in the 2D representation.

      Note: The Name box displays the non-editable and unique key server identifier.

    2. Optional: Enter a description.
  6. Click OK.
