Names of terminal connection points

My electromechanical superproject consists of two terminals and one wire.

Unfortunately, the terminals have internal and external connection points.

If I wire the internal and external connection points in Inventor:

And I will do the same in AutoCAD Electrical, then terminal connection errors appear.

How do I correctly assign the names of the internal (I) and external (E) connection points so that the terminals are connected without errors in the electromechanical project?

What attributes of the terminal symbol are used for this?

It sounds like you need to set up internal jumpers.

Ribbon: Schematic Tab -> Edit Components -> Edit Jumper (aejumper)

No, the jumper didn't help.

Another super project, which consists of a button (S1), a terminal (XT:3), a lamp (H1) and two wires (3,4).

The problem is the same: I can't create an electromechanical project without errors.

In AutoCAD Electrical, the two terminal contacts have the same number (3:I).

In Inventor, I cannot assign the same (3:I) number to different terminal pins.

Can I solve this problem somehow?

Thank you for support.

I've marked the internal and external connections.

It didn't help.

Jens Pedersen's presentation contains the following slide:

And more:

It's unclear what I should do?

@galashkina Did you ever figure this out? I am just now diving into electromechanical link and encountering the same hardcoded Internal and External pin assignment error. I think it has something to do with the assignment of PinL and PinR in the "Electrical Properties" of the component in Inventor:

Even though we manually name the pins "1" and "2", the electro mechanical link reports them as "I" and "E" based on the PinL and PinR assignment.

When I was testing this, the pin is always reported as "I" in ACADE
