Adding a signal component to a functional or logical structure
Note
Before you can add a signal component to a function or logical structure, the data dictionary for the signal must already exist in a Signals library in the Classification perspective.
You must have administrator privileges to work in the Classification Admin perspective.
The entire process for adding a signal component to a structure consists of the following high-level steps:
- In the Classification Admin perspective, create a Signals library and data dictionary in the Classification hierarchy:
- Create a group.
- Add a class to the group.
- Create a Signals library for the class.
- Create attribute dictionary definitions for the Signals library.
- In the My Teamcenter perspective, create a signal component and add it to the Signals library:
- Create a signal component.
- Add the signal component to the Signals library created previously by your Classification administrator.
- In the Systems Engineering perspective, add a signal component from the library to the structure:
- Add a signal to the function or logical structure.
- Associate the signal to an interface or connection in the structure.
