Add Pinout Data to Each Cable Set to true to allow attachment of pinout data to each cable. You must display the Edit Cable Data dialog in order to pick the pinout. Pinouts are set using the Pinouts plugin. Once defined, during a cable number assignment you can pick from pinouts that have the proper connectors defined. If the proper connectors, both src and dst, do not exist in the pinout it will not be available for choice.
