generated for any Arcadia drawing, this allows full
harness testing even for low volume production
Link to connector test headersThere is no limit to the cross-references you can add to
a part, easily switch which of these show on your
drawings & reports
• Build Harnesses right first time
• See quickly where build issues have
occurred
• Profile driven parameters such as
acceptable variance in resistance
• Link successful harness tests to your
label printers to ensure that a Part
Number label is only printed after
successful test
• Catch build errors early in your batch
production
• Ensure increased productivity and
reliability
Generate test code directly from Arcadia engineering
drawings, allowing you to ensure that your harness
builds match your CAD 100% without having to built,
learn and test against a golden sample build.
