Ok that makes sense on the signal type.
As far as the connectors, they aren't incorrect, I just sometimes need them to be different from the default. For example sometimes I need the optical jackfield tool to be an ST connector, and others I need it to be an LC. The way that im currently changing them is to either use the tool to place the number that I need (using the repeat field) and having the port numbers be correct but having to edit each jack individually to change the connector type or placing 1 jack, modifying the connector, then duplicating that connector as many times as is needed. The latter leaves me having to go into each individual jack and re label the port numbers.
Just for reference, which tool would be the correct one to use to illustrate a custom rack panel. Im building a system, that feeds everything back to the truck via several fiber racks. These racks have all of the I/O gear to break out to the individual items in the field, so a custom panel is the interface to get it all connected. Some of the jacks are just pass thru barrels, where as others are soldered connectors. How do I note this on the drawing. For instance if I place a audio terminal panel (which would have my soldered connections) it doesnt allow me to change the connector label on the cable that would be inside the rack. Would that be the appropriate time to use an audio jackfield? From what i've read it sounds like those are used to illustrate a WECO style patch panel.
