Commandline: circ

 

Explanation

This is the Circuits view. Circuits are collections of cables. In most cases they include jumpers between panels and Backbones. Circuits consist of a set of ordered elements and a strand count.

This grid contains a Visualizer that lets you see the data in graphical form. The Visualizer associated with this grid will create a functional diagram of the selected Circuit.
