In this informational dialog, which is automatically shown every time you start the program, you are shown useful information on program functions. Deselect the Show tips at startup check box if you do not wish this dialog to appear every time the program is started. Click on [Close] to close the Tip of the day. Before you create a project, you will first see a little more information about the user interface in the next chapter. Note: In the Select scope of menu dialog, if you activated the Do not show this dialog again check box, this dialog will no longer be shown when you start EPLAN, and the currently specified menu scope will be used.

You will also learn how to change the interface easily. Be- sides various other interface elements, you see the Page navigator and the Graphical preview on the left side of the main window. When you first start the program, these two windows are empty. The area on the right side with the background image will be used later as a working area for the opened pages. The main window is the entire working area of the program; its size and position can be changed.

For many other interface elements e. You can attach "dock" these ele- ments to the window edges inside the main window. What is the Page navigator? You can choose between two representation types. In the tree view, the pages are displayed hierarchically by page type and iden- tifier such as higher-level function, mounting location, etc. In the list view, this information is shown arranged in a table.

You can switch be- tween the two views by clicking on the corresponding tab. In the Page navigator, you can edit the pages of one project, for instance, copy pages, delete them, or change page properties. Multiple pages from different projects can not be edited at one time. Tip: To show and hide the Page navigator quickly, you can use the [F12] key. What is the Graphical preview? The Graphical preview is a preview window for the minimized display of highlighted pages, symbols, image files, macros, forms, etc.

For exam- ple, if you have highlighted one or several pages in the page navigator, they will be displayed in a minimized window in the Graphical preview.

Using this window, you can quickly search through all the pages of a project. It contains the program icon with the system menu, the program name, and the buttons controlling the size setting of the window.

If you have opened a project page, the name of the opened page will also be shown in the title bar by default. Menu bar The menu bar is located below the title bar. It contains the most impor- tant commands and dialog calls. In order to show all the menu items of a menu, left-click on the corres- ponding menu. Until you have opened a project and a page, you will not be able to select many of the menu items.

These menu items are shown in a grayed-out view. Some menu items work like a switch, that is, they can be turned on or off. This applies particularly to the View menu for the Graphical preview menu item. If the option is switched on, then this is indicated with a pre- ceding check mark. Tip: In the Graphical preview, the pages you have selected in the Page navigator are shown in a reduced view. Using this window, you can, for instance, quickly search through all the pages of a project.

Popup menu In many places in the program in fields of windows or dialogs, in an opened page you can open up a popup menu by right-clicking.

The popup menu shows the most commonly used menu items for the object in question. If menu items are present in the popup menu of a field which go beyond the standard functions, you can see that from a "popup menu button". This button is located above the corresponding field. Toolbars As standard, the toolbars are located below the menu bar and consist of buttons allowing you to directly call up the most important EPLAN func- tions. Here, too, you do not initially have all the buttons available.

Example: The following figure shows you the Standard toolbar for an opened project. When you point the mouse at a menu item or a button in a toolbar, a brief informa- tive text relating to the action called by this command is displayed here.

If you have the cursor in an opened page, the status bar shows you information about the cursor position, grid, and logical status, along with data about the currently selected element, in some cases. On logic pages such as this schematic page , the coordinates are entered in grid increments; and on graphics pages, they are entered in millimeters or inches.

Device data is reported on logic pages. In the maximized view of the main window, the diagonal lines are not shown. To show them, the window must be reduced in size, for instance using the button.

Changing the User Interface You can change the view of the user interface to fit your own work habits. Many dialogs, such as the Page navigator, which you often use for editing your data, can be permanently positioned on your screen while working with EPLAN and undocked from the EPLAN main window in the same manner as independent windows.

You can position any of these "Windows" in an undocked state , and every other dialog, by pulling the title bar of the dialog to the desired position while holding down the left mouse button. Docking and undocking control elements Some user interface control elements, such as the menu bar, the tool- bars or various windows like the Page Navigator, can be positioned inside or outside of the EPLAN main window.

Next click the title bar of the Page navigator with the left mouse button and keep the button pressed. Press [Ctrl] to avoid docking, and pull the Page navigator to a free position on the Windows Desktop. If the borders of the respective control element are displayed with a thick line, EPLAN positions the control element as an independent, undocked element on the Windows desktop.

Repeat this procedure for additional control elements. To do this for a toolbar or the menu bar, click on a "free" spot within the bar.

Practice docking control elements, too. To do this, click the title bar of the desired undocked control element e. You can recognize this by the border of the element being displayed as a thin line. This will be a horizontal or vertical line, depending on whether you wish to position the control element at the top, bottom, left, or right.

You can recognize the orientation from the thinly drawn pre- view rectangle. When the program is exited, EPLAN saves the last settings of these elements docked, undocked, size, position and restores them the next time the program is started. Moreover, another toolbar "Symbols" has been hidden and two more moved around inside the main window "Graphics", "Connection symbols".

To avoid unnecessarily reducing the size of your EPLAN user interface, you have the option of hiding the toolbars you don't need. Click the right mouse button on a free area in the menu bar or toolbar. The popup menu shows all the available toolbars. Displayed toolbars are marked with a preceding checkmark. Select the Standard toolbar, for instance, and click the check box in front of the toolbar name.

EPLAN closes the popup menu and hides the toolbar. Repeat the procedure and deactivate some more toolbars. Practice displaying unhiding toolbars too. To do this, call up the popup menu again and click on the name of a hidden toolbar e. You can also use this dialog to customize and extend the predefined toolbars and create your own toolbars. Selecting workspaces Once you have changed the EPLAN user interface to suit your needs, you can save this arrangement as a "workspace.

We provide you with a few predefined workspaces which you can use as templates for your own workspaces. The Workspace dialog opens. From the Scheme drop-down list, select the entry Connections as an example of a workspace.

Besides the Page naviga- tor, the main window now also contains the two windows Potentials and Connections. In these special navigators, all the potentials and connec- tions of a project are shown. Restoring the original view 1. From the Scheme drop-down list, select the entry Default. EPLAN now shows the view displayed when it first started up.

Using this action, you can reset an EPLAN user interface that you may have changed back to the original state. You can find more detailed information about the user interface — for instance, how you can define your own workspaces — in the EPLAN online help. In EPLAN, schematics and attached documents such as lists and over- views are created as pages within projects. A project consists of a collec- tion of different types of documents.

Projects are stored and organized in a special database — "Project Management". What is a project structure? In EPLAN, "Project structure" means the combination of all identifier structures used in the project for objects, pages, devices, and functions. All objects in a project pages, devices, and functions must be identified and placed in a hierarchical structure within the project. In a hierarchical- ly arranged project structure, for instance, you can store and find pages and devices more easily.

The identifiers for project structure are called "structure identifiers". What is a project template? In order to create a new project, you always need a template. When using the project template, you create a project in which some settings are already predefined. For instance, the structure of page identifiers and device tags are stored in a project template. Even as a beginner, you can use the Project wizard to quickly and easily get results. In the dialog of the wizard — the Create project Wizard dia- log — you can enter all the principal data for a new project step by step.

The Create project Wizard dialog opens. In the Project name field on the first tab, enter the name for your first project. Select a storage location for the project. To do this, click [ By default, your projects are managed in the Projects directory in a "company folder" created during installation in the illustration, the Company code folder. Select this "company folder" and click on [Make New Folder].

A new folder is created below the currently selected "company folder", whose temporary name New Folder is highlighted with an edit frame. The Browse For Folder dialog is closed and you are returned to the Project wizard. Select a Template for the project.

To do this, click the [ If you don't select a template here, you will not be able to perform any more steps in the Project wizard. The Open dialog opens. Click on [Open]. The Open dialog is closed, and the name for the project template is accepted for the Template field. The template and location now being used will then be the defaults next time the Project wizard is started. Click [Finish].

The Importing project dialog opens. The Project wizard copies the template into the new project. This procedure may take some time. Projects form the first level in the tree icon:. The levels with the project pages are typically below the level with the project name.

The selected project template enables hierarchically arranged structures for all objects in the project. It has a project structure already determined. Structure identifiers for the "higher-level function" and the "mounting location" are used to identify pages and devices. This will, for example, be visible later when editing the page properties in the Full page name dialog see page The next chapter will describe how to create and edit pages. There, you will also read how to assign structure identifiers for the pages.

Note: Once you are more familiar with EPLAN, you can use the different tabs of the Create project Wizard dialog to change the default settings from the project template regarding structure, numbering, and properties.

In this chapter, you will learn how to create pages and edit their page properties. A project gen- erally consists of pages of different types. The page types help structure a project. The page type is generally assigned when the page is created, but it can also be changed later. The title page or cover sheet is usually the first page of a project. What is a schematic multi-line page? A schematic multi-line page is a page for which the schematic docu- mentation has multi-line symbols.

It has special editing capabilities for the creation and analysis of schematic diagrams. For instance, symbols inserted are automatically connected with one another. What is a graphical editor? A graphical editor is the part of the program you use to create and edit schematics and mechanical drawings. It is started when you open a page. Besides the window in which the page is displayed, the menu bar also has numerous program functions such as the Insert menu avail- able for graphical editing.

The window is dockable and has its own standard Windows buttons. In a "maximized" view, the window of the editor fits into the main window in such a way that the title bar is integrated into the menu bar of the main window see also the illustration on page In the "minimized" view, the window has its own title bar.

The Page type field is automatically prepopulated with Schematic multi-line I. In the Page description field, enter the text, Power supply. Any page or structure level may be selected when you do this. Note: Based on the Beginner mode selected in the Select scope of menu dialog, you use fields that allow multilingual entries e. This function provides you with the whole word based on the letters you type in. Only words in the dictionary will be suggested.

In the tree view of the Page navigator, select the 1 Power supply page. Most property fields already have values. EPLAN accepts the properties of the selected page and automatically suggests the next free page for the Full page name. Click on [Clear fields]. The contents of some properties fields such as the Page de- scription field are deleted. The automatically suggested Full page name and the prepopulated Page type are kept. Next to the Page type field, click the [ The Add page type dialog opens.

In the Page description field, enter the text Cover sheet. For the Form name property, click in the Value field next to it, and then click the button that appears. No value needs to be entered for the Plot frame name property. The plot frame used for a page is already predefined in the project settings. The other displayed properties, Scale and Grid, are already prepopulated with correct entries. The cover sheet is shown in the tree view of the Page navigator and opened in the Graphical editor.

Then, in the Page type field, select the entry, Schematic multi-line I , and in the Page description field enter the text, Control ET1. Now you have created the pages you need for editing the schematic. Closing a page Since you don't immediately need the second schematic page, close it again. The page 3 Control ET1 is closed. In the tree view of the Page navigator, select the page 2 Cover sheet. The cover sheet of the project is shown.

This is the case, if in the View menu, you activated the menu item Workbook. In the Page navigator, you can recognize the opened page from the fact that the page name and description 2 Cover sheet are now in bold. Tip: To open a page selected in the Page navigator, you can also double- click on the page or press the [Enter] key. Open the page 1 in the same way.

This will automatically close the first page and display the empty schematic in the Graphical editor. For instance, select page 2 again, then from the popup menu of the Page navigator select the menu item Open in new window. For every opened page, a tab is shown below the graphical editor window. You can quickly switch between pages by clicking these tabs. The pages created, however, don't yet have struc- ture identifiers.

In the following section, we describe how you can assign the identifier by editing the page properties. In the tree view of the Page navigator, select the cover sheet page 2 Cover sheet. The Page properties dialog opens. Change the value in the Full page name field.

Here, you can enter the structure identifier and the name of the page e. Enter the value ANL in the Higher-level function field. Enter the value DBT in the Mounting location field. In the Page name field, change the entry from 2 to 1. The Full page name dialog is closed. The structure identifiers are accepted for the field of the same name in the Page properties dia- log. In the Page properties dialog, click [OK].

For the "Higher-level function" structure iden- tifier level with the identifier ANL, the icon will be used; and for the "Mounting location" level with the identifier DBT, the icon will be used.

Repeat this action for the schematic page page 1 and 3. In the Full page name dialog, as the structure identifier for the Higher-level func- tion, enter the designation ANL again. For the Mounting location, enter the designation SCP for the schematic pages. And for the second sche- matic page, in the Page name field, change the entry from 3 to 2. Now all pages in the project have structure identifiers. You may first have to enlarge the Page navigator window a little before you can read all the page descriptions.

Note: If you have made a change during page editing for instance, changed page properties, inserted graphical elements, etc. There is no separate save necessary, and so there is no corresponding menu item in the program! You will also learn how to open and close a project, and you will learn a few basic com- mands for viewing and editing a project. Opening a Project 1. The Open project dialog opens.

Here, the projects are shown which are located in your predefined project directory by default. Click [Open]. The page description is displayed in the Page navigator. Then repeat this for the plus sign in front of the structure level CA1, then for the next to the structure level EAA. The first section of the tree is opened. The pages are now dis- played in the "lowest" project level. First, page through the pages of this extensive project. The currently selected level in the tree view will be opened or closed.

Fuerther information and examples. Reference Handbook, 1st edition. About the Author. In the Properties components : Terminals dialog, also click [OK]. The terminal with the displayed DT —X1 is placed in the schematic. For the first two terminals, you can accept the predefined terminal designations 2 and 3, but for the last terminal change the designation to PE. Modify the function defini- tions for all terminals.

For the first two terminals -X and -X , also select the function definition Terminal with saddle jumper, 2 connection points, and for the PE terminal -X the function definition PE terminal with rail contact, 2 connection points. Finish the action by selecting the menu item Cancel action from the popup menu. The terminal strip definition identifies the terminal strip and contains all the relevant data for the terminal strip as well as the terminal strip part information.

The symbol for the terminal strip definition hangs on the mouse pointer. The Properties components : Terminal strip definition dialog opens. Due to the automatic numbering, the field Displayed DT is already prepopulated with the entry —X2.

In the Displayed DT field on the Terminal strip definition tab, enter the strip designation -X1 already assigned in the schematic. In the Function text field, enter the text Motor, 4 connection points. The terminal strip definition is inserted at the given coordinates. The cable definition line must cross the corresponding connections. The symbol for the cable definition line hangs on the mouse pointer. Click with the left mouse button to establish the starting point of the line.

The Properties components : Cable dialog opens. Due to the automatic numbering, the field Displayed DT is already prepopu- lated with the entry —W1. In the Function text field, enter the text Motor. In the fields No. From the drop-down list for the Unit field, select the entry mm2. In the schematic, the cable definition line with the displayed DT —W1 is shown along with the data entered. When drawing the cable definition line, a connection definition point is automatically set at each intersection of connections with the cable defi- nition line.

The cable conductors are determined via the connection defi- nition points. You will only see these automatically generated connection definition points if you have activated the view of insertion points.

For certain actions e. In doing this, new connections are generated based on the available information or existing connections are updated. The individual connection can get its data from project settings, potentials, or from a connection definition point. Since the connection data is not automatically updated for each action, we recommend manually updating before certain actions such as the execution of check runs, or working in navigator dialogs.

EPLAN updates all connections in the project. If the check box is not activated, updating is only carried for the current selection of pages, functions, etc. If no other function text is entered for a component, the function text from the path will be used for reports e.

The Properties - Path function text dialog opens. On the Text tab, enter the term, Power supply. The path function text hangs on the mouse pointer. Click the left mouse button to place the text in the desired path.

Note: Be sure when inserting path function texts that the insertion point of the text is aligned with the insertion point of the component which should receive the path function text. Inserting "Interruption Point" Connection Symbols 1. The interruption point symbol hangs on the mouse pointer. Hold [Ctrl] and then move the cursor in a circle. The different variants are displayed. Select the variant with the arrow pointing downwards Variant D , and release the [Ctrl] key.

The Properties components : Interruption point dialog opens. The interruption point is inserted at the given coordinates.

Now you must insert two more action lines. Assign this "PE" line the same formatting properties you assigned to the first "PE" line. Change the formatting properties for this line, too. For instance, select a different line thickness and a different line type. Next, you will also insert components on the second schematic page, thus generating cross-references. In this chapter, you will complete the schematic on the second page, thus generating cross-references.

EPLAN differentiates between different types of cross-reference. The program automatically inserts most of these cross-reference automati- cally online. Based on the sample project, you will get to know some of the most common cross-reference types. More detailed information on the different types of cross-reference can be found in the EPLAN online help.

Devices can consist of different elements and be distributed across mul- tiple pages of schematics. It can also be necessary to depict a device multiple times. In such cases, cross-references identify the fact that individual components belong together.

A cross-reference shows you where the other part of a device can be found in the schematic. Using cross-references, you can reliably find a component or associated parts on a series of pages.

How are cross-references displayed in the schematic? The cross-references are shown by default in the order, [Separa- tor]Page name[Separator]Column. By default, the cross-references receive a different color than the other elements displayed. The NC power contact -K1 on the first schematic page will later be cross-referenced to a coil which then is located on page 2 in column 2.

Automatically Generating Interruption Point Cross-references First, insert two interruption points on the second schematic page. Inter- ruption points are used to represent connections encompassing more than one page. To do this, select them in the Page navigator and double-click on the page. For com- parison, look at the procedure in section "Inserting "Interruption Point" Connection Symbols" on page Generating Cross-references 82 EPLAN Electric P8 — Getting Started Changing display settings for the interruption points To prevent the device tag from crossing future autoconnect lines, addi- tional settings must be made in the appropriate property dialogs.

In the dialog Properties components : Interruption point switch to the Display tab. The entries in the Alignment, X coordinate, and Docking fields will change.

The displayed properties are shown to the left of the insertion point. The interruption point L- is inserted. The cross-references are displayed at both inserted interruption points beside the device tag. The cross-references refer to the interruption points with the same dis- played DT located on the first schematic page. On this page, too, corres- ponding cross-references are displayed at the interruption points.

Or use the Connec- tion symbols toolbar to insert the listed components. To do this, after inserting, click on the insertion point of the T-node and then, in the T-node right dialog, select the corresponding option see section "Inserting "T-node" Connection Symbols" on page Or you can use the [Ctrl] key when inserting to rotate the symbol on the cursor and select the right variant that way. This form of cross-reference display is often used for contactor coils or motor over- load switches.

In the Direct entry field, enter K. In the list, select the coil K and click [OK]. The Properties components : General device dialog opens. In the properties dialog, switch to the Coil tab. In the Displayed DT field, enter -K1. This includes the connection point designations, the sym- bols, and the schematic positions of the contacts cross-referenced to the coil and is shown below the coil. Inserting another contact for the coil Now use symbol selection to insert another contact for the coil.

For searching via direct entry enter S and then select the NO contact with symbol number 1. The DT selection dialog which then appears shows all the DTs present in the project which match the given function. Inserting Contacts and Contact Image for Motor Overload Switches Finally, insert two more contacts on this page for the motor overload switch —Q2 on the first schematic page.

In the Direct entry field, enter O. In the properties dialog, switch to the NC contact tab. In the Displayed DT field, enter -Q2. Or apply the displayed DT using DT selection. To do so, click [ Now use symbol selection to insert another NO contact symbol name for Direct entry: S; symbol number: 1.

You have now completed the creation of the schematic on the second page. On the motor overload switch itself, you see the contacts just inserted as a contact image. The cross-referenced contacts are shown as symbols on the action line of the motor overload switch.

In addition, the connec- tion point designations and the schematic positions of the contacts can be seen in the contact image.

Tip: From the NO contact you just inserted, —Q2, you can jump directly to the motor overload switch on the first schematic page. Changing the contact image position For contacts to be shown in a contact image, appropriate display settings must be made for the contact image in the properties dialog of the motor overload switch.

Look at these settings in the motor overload switch. Double-click in the schematic on motor overload switch —Q2. In the properties dialog, switch to the Display tab. The Contact image drop-down list already shows the correct setting for the contact image. Using the On component option, the contact image is displayed next to the component. This setting is preset by default during insertion of motor overload switches. The Contact image position dialog opens. In this dialog, you can "manually" determine the position of the contact image in relation to the insertion point of the device.

Deactivate the Automatically aligned check box. The X position and Y position fields are activated. In the X position field, enter the value The position of the contact image has been moved to the other side of the component "Motor overload switch". Now you are finished with both of the schematic pages of your project.

In the next chapter you will learn how to assign parts to the devices in- serted. Before you start with reports and can automatically generate a parts list, you must enter parts for the devices inserted.

The Parts tab is available in the property dialog of the components to do this. Here you can manually enter the parts or select them using "part selection". Part selection is a dialog you can use to select parts and their data from a data source. What is parts management? Parts management is the part of the program in which you can manage information specific to parts and people; items such as part numbers, customer, manufacturer, or supplier data.

To manage parts data, you have to have at least advanced user knowledge, and for this reason we will not go into any more depth about parts management here.

Assigning Parts 1. Double-click on the insertion point of switch -Q1. In the properties dialog, switch to the Parts tab. Click [ The button appears once you click on the corresponding table cell in the Part number column. The Part selection dialog opens. Structurally, this dialog is ex- actly like Parts management.

In the left half, the parts are shown in a tree, list or a combination of these two representations, where the tree structure is subdivided by default into the hierarchy levels: Electrical engineering, Fluid power, and Mechanics.

In the right half of the dialog, you see the data belonging to the element or elements selected in the left window. Now expand the parts tree on the left side. To do this, click, for example, on the associated plus sign in front of the levels Parts, Electrical engineering, Component, General, and on the levels of other product groups like Cables. Or select the various levels in the tree, and then select Expand in the popup menu.

The structure of the Electrical engineering generic product group will be expanded. The parts numbers are shown on the lowest level in the tree.

To reduce the amount of data shown, select a filter now. The Automatic filter dialog opens. The check box Identifier Q is already prepopulated. Click [OK] to confirm the setting. In Part selection, select the corresponding Active check box for the Automatic filter so that the filter settings will be used.

Now the parts matching the filter settings are shown in the tree structure. In the tree from product group Power switchgear, select the part SIE. The parts data of the selected parts are now shown in the data fields on the right side of Part selection. The image file stored in the part will also be displayed in the Graphical preview.
