The neural subsystem node allows us to split our circuit up into discrete, functional parts. But this leaves the problem of how do you
connect nodes in one subsystem to a node in another system? This is done using an offpage connector. It can represent any node in any
part of the system. This node has all of the basic properties that are common to nodes in general. The most important property is the
Linked Node item. When you click on this property you get a drop-down that lists all of the nodes in the organism, split up by the
diagrams they are contained within. This allows you to select any node in the organism. Once you do then this offpage connector essentially
"stands in" for that other node. When you draw connections to or from it
then you are really connecting to the other node that can be located on
an entirely different diagram, or in a different location in the same
diagram.
