Add harness segments
- [Instructor] Wiring would be a lot easier if you could just simply connect things point-to-point, like my design currently shows. However, for better manufacturing and maintainability, I want to go ahead and route these wires through segments and place them properly in my design. I'll go back into my harness and start the create segment tool. In addition to adding electrical pins to my components, I've also added work points in several locations, normal to the surface on the part that I would like the harness to approach from. I can leverage these as I create my segments by picking them and adding them to the path of my harness. Just like with placing a splice, I'll change my offset, and I can move around to any surface and have it place a point for my harness to follow. Even in my wire ties, I've applied a work point pass the harness through. I'll come and connect to the splice, and then continue on from there to my connectors, through another wire loom, to another connector, and…
