I/O's are used to populate the Visio and AutoCAD Schematic shapes/blocks. You add I/O's via the I/O Studio. You can add I/O's to a single Product via the Edit Product function.
You can also open the I/O Studio for more than one Product at a time by selecting the Products in the grid within the Product Explorer interface and clicking the [I/O's] button:
Inputs/Outputs added to a Product will display in the Schematic shapes/blocks in our Visio and AutoCAD interfaces. Connections made with SIX wire shapes/blocks can be reported against.
Use this feature when you plan to use a Product on a Schematic page in our Visio and AutoCAD interfaces.
