Explanation

This tool provides access to the Pinouts table of the Global Equipment database. The concept of the Pinouts tool is to create a data set that describes two connectors and the conductors between them. The Cable Type data needs to have conductor level data. The data may be attached at the project level to a cable. The data can also be churned into a preview.
