Collaborative design

• SEE Electrical Expert V4 allows the collaborative work of several users on the same project. Modifications made by other users are instantly seen. It is also possible to hold online discussions (chat) without leaving the software.

• Thesoftwaremanagesconflicts(simultaneousaccesstodata).Thisensurestotalprojectdataintegrity.

• All electrical functionalities are available in Collaborativemode through a “shared folder”.

Performance

Electrical data explorerThis new explorer allows quick and easy editing of projectdata. Access to electrical data (equipment, connectors,terminals, cables…) is immediate (it is no longer necessaryto access each sheet). Searching is faster and navigation between different representations of the same equipmentbecomes almost instantaneous.

Open Data• The new version 4 can export all project data as

spreadsheets to allow modification with Excel or anyother spreadsheet application. This data can thenimported back while managing data consistency. Sheets are automatically updated. Large data volumes processed in a spreadsheet makes the process faster and easier.

• ItisalsopossibletoinitializeanewprojectfromanExcelfile containing all the project general data (functions,locations,terminals,etc)whichhavebeendefinedduringthe preliminary project phase.

Performance improvementsThis version is optimized leading to much faster visualization andreduced processing time.Afewexamples- Sheet display (typically 2 times faster and up to 30 times faster

in cases such as terminal sheets)- Automaticcablingfromthesynoptic- Internet catalogue search on all families- ProjectExplorer- etc.

Automatic sheet generationElectrical projects can be similar, but different. IGE+XAOoffers several solutions for machine or electrical installation configuration and for automatically generating a complete electrical project (schematics, terminals, part lists, cablelists,etc)from:-anExcelspreadsheet-CompoData, the IGE+XAO Group software suite forconfiguringcomplexsystems.
