-  * **From** - Lists all the available [[Model_output|model outputs]] of the source [[Sub-system|sub-system]].
+  * **From** - List all the available [[Model_output|model outputs]] of the source [[Sub-system|sub-system]].
   * Unit - Displays the unit of the output.
   * Dimension - Displays the dimension of the output. The dimension of the output must be the same as the dimension of the input.
-  * **To** - By clicking in the cell, a [[Model_output|model output]] can be selected.
+  * **To** - List all the available [[Model_input|model input]] can be selected.
   * Unit - Displays the unit of the input.
   * Dimension - Displays the dimension of the input.
   * Message - If there is a problem with the connection, such as a dimension mismatch or a unit incompatibility.
+In case of [[Model_input|inputs]] and [[Model_output|outputs]] do not allow auto connections, or names of relevant input and output are not the same, user needs to create connection in connector manually.
+To create connection move the mouse cursor to the relevant output in the column on the left side. A green outline should be displayed. While keeping the left mouse button pressed, move the mouse cursor to the relevant input in the column on the right side. When you release the mouse button a connection should appear.
