Assigning Nets Manually

Manually assigning nets is useful if you do not want to include an object made of conductive material in the matrices.

Warning:

Perfect electric conductors (PECs) and non-PECs cannot be part of the same net.

To manually assign a net:

  1. Select the 3D conductive object to which you want to assign a net.
  2. Assign the net one of three ways:

    • Right-click in the Modeling Workspace and select Assign Net > [Net Type].
    • Right-click Nets in the Project Manager and select Assign Net > [Net Type].
    • Select [Q3D Extractor] > Nets > Assign > [Net Type].

    A dialog box appears prompting you to name the net.

  3. Enter a Name for the net.
  4. Click OK.

    Nets appear in the Project Manager under Nets.
