Set the Elevation, referring for the Cable Path Data at crossings of more than two Cable

Paths. In the case that a crossing has the same Cable Path Elevation as another one, an 'N'

appears in the Check Cell. In that case, you cannot set the Elevation.

Peripheral Fittings, such as Reducer, Elbow, Vertical Adjustable and so on, are set

according to the Elevation of each Bend, Tee, Cross and so on.

If Cable Path Elevations are different from each other, it must be figured out whether

Modeling is executed using a 90 degree Elbow. If there is no need for space, Modeling is

executed using a 45 degree Vertical Adjustable.

If you want to assign an Elbow to P1(T) ~ P4(T), enter 'E'.

If you want to assign an Adjustable [to there], enter 'A'.

After setting the angles for P1(A) ~ P4(A), you can create an arbitrary Fitting for the user.
