The question often arrises about bi-directional signal types (those that either could be a source or a destination or those that carry a transmit and receive signal in the same cable structure). How do we create ports for these types of signals? The short answer is that WireCAD does not care whether you place a port on the lefthand side or the righthand side of a functional block. We use the inputs on the left and outputs on the right by convention only. So what does that mean to you? It all comes down to document flow. Will your document read better if you place the port on the lefthand side or the righthand side.

The question often arrises about bi-directional signal types (those that either could be a source or a destination or those that carry a transmit and receive signal in the same cable structure). How do we create ports for these types of signals? The short answer is that WireCAD does not care whether you place a port on the lefthand side or the righthand side of a functional block. We use the inputs on the left and outputs on the right by convention only. So what does that mean to you? It all comes down to document flow. Will your document read better if you place the port on the lefthand side or the righthand side.
