Inserting a Jumper

After the crew informs you what type of jumper they will insert, you can make the change in the system. To insert a jumper, complete these steps:

1. Open a Viewer and load the map that contains the conductor where you want to place the jumper.

2. Double-click on the conductor. The Control Tool opens.

3. Click Model Edits... and select the appropriate option for the type of jumper you want to insert:

• If you are placing an in-line jumper, the Model Edit in Progress dialog box will be displayed.

• If you are placing a point-to-point jumper or cross-phase jumper, you can optionally press and hold the Alt key while selecting coordinates in the Viewer for the jumper path. Continue selecting points until you have chosen your second conductor.

• To start over, right click to clear the point selections.

• If you are placing a P-P jumper or emergency cable, the Select Secondary dialog box opens. Select another conductor in the Viewer and click OK. The Model Edit in Progress dialog box will be displayed.

• If you are placing a point-to-point or an in-line cross phase, the Select Secondary dialog box will open. Select another conductor (in the Viewer), and click OK. The Cross Phase Selection dialog box opens. Select a phase for each device and click OK. The Model Edit in Progress dialog box will be displayed.

Note: The Model Edit in Progress dialog box will disappear when the model build is completed. Click OK to dismiss the dialog box or move it to the side while performing other operations. The Viewer will then refresh to display the jumper.
