How to make a wire/fiber splice in creoShematcis 2.0

Hi everyone,

I am new to Creo shematics and I have troubles making a simple splice on a wire. I precisely followed the indications in the doc page "To Insert a Splice" with no success; the cursor does not become "T shaped" as it is supposed.

I use creo schematics 2.0.

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

you need to create block (with proper diagram type) which include three ports organized as following :

  • two ports are on the same horizontal plane with opposite directions (one point to the right and one point to the left)
  • 3rd port should point downwards, should be located in the middle between above ports ( in the same horizontal plane below)
  • datum point should be located at the intersection point of all three ports
  • for additional info, you can read the doc page "To Set a Branch Shape"

Thank you very much for your answer.

Is it possible to use a single dot style, like the documentation example in the section "About Splices"?

yes, just place the ports one over each other.
