Outputting wire harnesses to other formats

You can use the Save As ECAD command to save your wire harness component and connection information so that it can be used by other ECAD software systems. You can export the information to ECAD system-specific format or to .XML format.

Note:

The command will only export information for conductors that have been attributed. Any paths that do not contain attributes will not be included in the file.

When you select the command, the Save As ECAD dialog box is displayed. You can use this dialog box to specify the format to which you want to save the information. You can also specify the name, location, and format of the components and connections files.

The components file contains information about the components in the wire harness such as the unique id, component name, and component description. You can save the components file to .CMP or .CMP_XML format.

The connection file contains information about the connections in the wire harness such as the wire id, fromcomponentid, and the tocomponentid. You can save the components file to .CON or .CON_XML format.
