If, however, you chose the Custom template, no signals will have been allocated,
and all will show as available in the resources list. As you define a new signal, the
resources available will decrease. Thus you can tell by looking at the resources list
what additional signals you could define for this particular BLADE.
Defining a new signal is easy. Click the “Add” button and the “Destination Signal
Wizard - Add Signal” screen pops up. On the Type Info tab enter the Name, and
optionally the Location. Select the Signal Type and accept the Packet Type as
automatically selected. Next,
switch to the Wire Info tab. High-
light the desired wire number (you
must pick one that is not already
assigned), then click “Finish.” The
new signal name will now appear
throughout the system.
The same is true for the logic
ports. The default configuration
makes no automatic assignment
of logic ports, so all 12 are ini-
tially available and show as LIOs.
As you allocate logic ports for
functions, the resources decrease
correspondingly. The “available
resources” list, then, allows you
to see at a glance how many ports
you’ve used.
OK, so how do you modify the logic resources? Click on a signal name or location
in the Destination Signals: area, then click on the “Edit” button. This opens a
“Destination Signal Wizard - Edit Signal” window where you can redefine the audio
signal type or, in this case, add or
change logic signals associated
with the audio. Use of this form
has already been covered in the
Destination Details Menu section
of this chapter under the topic
“Modify Signal.” The “LIO Info”
tab of this form is where you
define the logic associated with
the audio signal.
The “Delete” button com-
pletes the signal modification
tools. Highlight a signal and
choose “Delete” and an “Are you
sure?” window opens. If you click
on yes, then the selected signal is
removed from the system, adding
those resources back to the Free
Recources: list.
