You can select the files from which Creo Elements/Direct Cabling draws its lists of wires and cables, and the locations of its library parts files.
Creo Elements/Direct Cabling can draw from one wire definition file and one cable definition file at a time, as well as one catalog configuration file (ccf) for connectors, one or terminals, and one for fixtures.
Creo Elements/Direct Cabling includes the following definitions files, which you can customize, edit, and add to:
wire_definition.txt
cable_definition.txt
(3) catalog.ccf files (for connectors, fixtures, and terminals)
