Various schematic plans can be added as subtemplates.
Select the FO splice plan, the FO splice plan grouped, the FO cable-splice plan, the duct end plan, cable-jointing diagram, the rack diagram and the connection plan.
FO splice plan
The following dialog opens:
Subtemplate
A “name” must be assigned for the subtemplate. An additional “description” can be stored.
Data
The data source must be selected under “Data”.
Filters can restrict the objects of the corresponding feature class. With the default setting “1 = 1”, all objects of the feature class in the project are output. However, it is also possible to filter by the FIDs of specific objects. This FID can be found in the upper area of the Feature-class form.
If records have already been filtered in the Feature-class form, they are also transferred to the filter using .
Display
In the “Display” area, a previously created template file that contains the desired layouts must be selected. If multiple layouts exist in the template file, a layout must be checked. The attributes used in the layout can be replaced by placeholders.
Click on to open the dialog for the attribute substitutions. The attributes used in the layout must be entered in curly brackets. Entering the first bracket “{” will show all attributes available for selection in the layout. These can then be selected directly by double-clicking.
Note
Attributes must be defined as a block as described here if they are to be automatically substituted.
Possible substitutions are displayed by hovering over .
These vary depending on the selected feature class and the corresponding values from the associated line/point. The following are available by default:
Also during the substitution, the possible values are displayed by entering the first bracket “{":
Settings
The “Settings” can be used to specify the direction in which the cables and fibers are to be arranged:
Under “Color variation” you can define how colors should be displayed in black and white:
Further options are:
Output
A directory name can be specified and a file name must be specified for the splice plans to be output. The file name can be a specified text, a text in conjunction with a placeholder or created only via placeholders. Possible placeholders can be displayed by clicking next to the "File name” field. These vary depending on the selected feature class. The following are available by default:
Once all settings have been made, the configuration has to be saved once only by clicking on .
Additional subtemplates can be added. The configuration must then be saved again by clicking on .

Settings
The “Settings” can be used to specify:
- with which reference (schematic or georeferenced) the display should be made,
- whether splices or connectors are to be displayed and
- the text size with which the devices (closures/terminators), connections (splices) and cables are to be labeled.
Output
A directory name can be specified and a file name must be specified for the reports to be output. The file name can be a specified text, a text in conjunction with a placeholder or created only via placeholders. Possible placeholders can be displayed by clicking next to the “File name” field.
