Facilitated planimetry
design
Wall design with selectable thickness
and inclination. Automatic wall connection
with intersection cleaning. Door and
window intersection with wall automatic
cut. Horizontal, vertical and tilted
dimensioning.
Possibility of directly importing planimetries
(DXF format) from another CAD software
(AutoCAD or similar®) in order to
immediately generate the electrical
system design.
System design
Alarms, anti-fire, telephone, TV, hydraulic,
thermal and civil/industrial electrical
system design by means of symbol positioning
and covered wire/connection drawing.
Bidimensional design with wire value
regulation in order to exactly compute
wire, cable and channel length for the
final part list and for dimensioning
estimates. Special functions that advise
when 90 m. length has been reached during
a link tracing.
Symbol library
Over 400 symbols in conformity with
IEC norms. Visual symbol selection inside
of a window that displays all the symbols
of the selected library. Direct symbol
loading by typing their code (guided
mode). Unlimited possibility of either
easily creating new symbols or modifying
those already provided.
Distribution cabinet design
Symbol library special features representing
the different rack 19· cabinets
and their equipment: optical fiber pannels,
hubs, RJ45 UTP 16/24/32 gates and RJ45
STP 16/24 gate panels, phone-strips.
Electrical panels and functional
schematics
Automatic creation of electric panel
functional schematics starting from
the system schematic. Automatic dimensioning
computation based on distribution wires
and protection devices. Automatic table
filling with all data and descriptions.
Customizable table shapes.
Possibility of creating the panel without
the need to design the related electrical
system.
Powerful graphical functions
Design with Cartesian, polar and tilted
axis. Selectable measure units, design
scale and grid points. A4, A3, A2, A1,
A0, A, B, C, D, E or customizable sheet
size. Predefined or customizable title
block. Design up to 256 layers. Automatic
area sketching. Automatic quotation.
Design import/export in DXF format
from other CAD software
DXF interface to import designs in DXF
format from other CAD programs (e.g.
planimetries processed with AutoCAD®
12, 13, 14, 2000, LT).
Symbol legend automatic creation
Automatic extraction of the schematic
legend with symbol direct computation.
Computation and dimensioning functions
Computation of cable load, section,
voltage drop and length in conformity
with parameters such as absorbed power,
current, voltage, environment and cable
temperature, cos-fi, cable type, placing
type, number of wires in the cable and
its insulator type. Functions to verify
the protection devices, such as computation
of s. c. min. current, min. protected
lenght, I2t.
Part list/estimate creation
Special commands to directly extract
bills of materials and estimates from
the design. Possibility of calculating
- besides the computation of the different
objects found in the design - the total
length of the distribution cables and
links with their tridimensional development
(up and down).
Description data, codes, prices, etc.
extracted from the inner database, with
possibility of inserting any necessary
descriptive information. Possibility
of reading external price lists provided
by other electrical device suppliers
(the following formats are supported:
Microsoft Access®, Microsoft Excel®,
Paradox, dBIII and dBIV, Metel).
Possibility of using UNI-TOOL Cable
Link in connection with UNI-TOOL
Manager for more complex
bills of materials and special functions
(labor tables, cost analysis, warehouse
management functions, etc.).
Color
print/Print preview
Possibility
of using any ink-jet/laser printers
and plotters supported by Microsoft
Windows®.
Help on line
Direct access to information about any
available commands.
Totally developed for Microsoft Windows®
User interface totally organized in
conformity with Microsoft Windows®
standards for the leading application-oriented
programs (Microsoft Word®, Microsoft
Excel®, etc.), a feature that makes
the program very easy-to-use.
