•Group Cables - Place a single polyline with hash marks to indicate count. All cables that come and go from a single Location or SysName will be grouped. Otherwise a single polyline for each cable will be added.
•Must connect to equipment in the drawing - The population will fail if the connected equipment SysName is not found. Otherwise the cable will be populated to the drawing based on Location Boundary.
•Ignore cables that come and go to the same location - Keeps the drawing cleaner.
•Flag if other is not found - If both Locations or SysNames are not found in the drawing a flag will be places pointing to the other end.
•Polyline Bulge Factor - The bulge factor to create an arc instead of a straight line.
