Naming a Wire

Circuits can become very messy when wires must extend long distances and cross many other wires. To avoid such situations, you can give a named point to a wire, then virtually connect other wires to the named point.

A wire start names and visually terminates a wire or wire bundle. A wire end begins a new wire (or bundle) that is logically, but not visually, connected to a corresponding wire start.

To create a wire start, select the icon from the toolbar, give the wire a name, set the number of bits in the wire (bundle) by entering a number or using the keypad, and clicking on the OK button (click on the Cancel button to cancel the creation of the wire start).

Place the wire start and connect it to a wire or the output of some element. Now you can create one or more wire ends connected to this wire start.
