The table below summarises these connection rules in one place.
To use this table, look up the originating node in the left-most column, then the output you want to connect (the destination node) in columns 2..29.
Example: from a roof node, you can connect the runoff output to a buffer, but not the runoff to tank output.
This table shows the allowed connections between a source node, and a destination node. The Destination node column specifies which output of the source node can connect to the nodes below it. For example, the Impervious Area node's Runoff output can connect to another Impervious Area node's Inflow input, or a Junction node's Inflow input.
If a node is not listed in the Destination Node column, the connection is not permitted.
