EPLAN Electric P8 2.0 is coming, really exciting-turn caodaping

In April of this year, the 2.0 version of Eplan Electric P8 unveiled its mystery for the first time, seen in the world. Its unveiling, once again confirms that the Eplan software platform to "more practical" this direction, but also prove the "reliability" this long-term topic-in line with the new machinery Directive: Standards such as IEC 61346 have recently been extensively updated, and EPLAN software-related master data and functions are updated as well. Numerous project inspection rules are sufficient to ensure the quality of documents, and the system itself automatically prevents incorrect data input.

arbitrary data deletion, not so easy!
In the process of project design, we sometimes worry that some data will be inadvertently deleted, but we do not know or forget. The new device protection feature is used to protect devices that do not want to be unintentionally changed. When this feature is activated, the device is deleted from the drawing, but they are still stored in the database and can be placed again. This feature can also be applied to macros: In a macro file, the protected device seems to "know" It has all the same components. For example, a contactor has two auxiliary contacts, and the auxiliary contacts are not inserted into the schematic, but when the contactor is inserted into another project through a macro file, These two auxiliary contacts are also added to the database of the new project. This is especially important for project pre-design. The devices that were created at the beginning of the project design, the deletions that were made during the design process were simply dropped (removed from the surface), and they always existed in the database. The device protection feature is freely defined on the Eplan platform and is the basis for efficient and standardized design. The production delay problem caused by past order errors will be avoided when the BOM is exported. In addition, the new machinery directive, by using the Eplan, is easy to implement in the design process.

PLC channel in the control system
In the PLC design, up to today, all automation systems are identified by the address as the core. Now, in addition to the address (address-oriented)-based or device-based identifier (dt-oriented) mode of operation, you can also use a channel-based ( channel-oriented) mode. This is easier to track for large projects and is exactly the same as today's high-end design. The New PLC navigator also makes it easier to select components-by distributing them in the schematic and quickly designing and archiving them. The main features are: The way the PLC components are viewed can be changed at any time – there is no more flexible way.

connections that ignore connection points
Another highlight is the "network-based wiring" module, which will bring the wiring closer to the scene. In Eplan Electric P8, the "network-based wiring" function, regardless of how it is expressed on the connection surface, ignores the connection point and the user defines the connection under the network. The schematic will no longer be " To the target "wiring, but the" logical point "wiring (the actual situation of the connection does not depend on the connection point, but by the user's own definition). With this new way of working, the connection can be clearly expressed, simplifying the presentation of the drawings. and in the same project, the wiring to the target can be used, You can also use network-based wiring-both to ensure design efficiency and to ensure that the design meets the needs.

improved graphical editing capabilities
The content that is designed in electrical engineering often needs to be output efficiently for production. The free drawing feature in EPLAN is now greatly enhanced to ensure the creation of high-quality technical documentation. In this version, the new trim and chamfer features are added, And snaps to the tangent point and snaps to the Perpendicular feature. If you want to place the graphical object accurately, you can enter the XY coordinates directly in the Eplan Electric P8, just like CAD. It will save a lot of time for the structure design of the box cabinet.

Faster look-up capabilities
Text filters in the part manager have been further optimized to make it very fast for the user to find part data, and it is easy to find the desired part in the tree/list/Group view. At the same time, this text filter is integrated into the part master Data Navigator to speed up the object-based design pattern Speed. It simplifies operations and becomes a new one in many of the shining points in the Eplan Electric P8. The Mini toolbar and color-rich toolbar icons will give the user a more interactive experience. So these improvements, in the end, all come down to a goal: to save the user's valuable time significantly.

Conclusion:
EPLAN Electric P8 2.0 version will be more satisfied with the customer's reliability, flexibility and practical integration with the engineering needs. More than 1000 customer needs were adopted in this version of the development process. The final result is: In the process of electrical engineering, fluid engineering, process engineering and cabinet structure design , and the time and cost are much more economical.
