This page describes how to create a tray in Pathfinder.

Select the Add Tray options from the tray management section.

Trays are used for bundling cables when connected between any infrastructure. Cables are also useful to create a pathway of the cables. You can create a tray from the tray management section or directly from the dashboard map.

This function enables you to add new cable trays to your network.

Trays contain cables and are placed between buildings or between rooms inside a building. To be able to place a tray, the buildings where the tray begins and terminates need to contain at least one floor and one room.

Enter the tray's data (name, length etc.)  and choose start and target room.

After adding the tray by clicking Ok, you can add a cable into it.
