Available Resources

A resource is a PLM object (for example, a catalog or a business rule) or another type of file (for example, a bitmap or a spreadsheet). In Data Setup, resources are grouped in resource sets. A resource set is a PLM object that implements a single resource table. This topic lists available resources in Electrical Manufacturing Preparation Resources.

Logical NameEKL Name Resource Type Mandatory Criteria Description
Drawing catalogs Catalog - Allows to declare the 2D details and text templates catalogs.
Drawing chapters Chapter - Allows to declare the 2D details and text templates chapters.
Drawing libraries General Library - Allows to declare the libraries of 2D details and text templates.
Drawing classes General Class - Allows to declare the classes of 2D details and text templates.
Default drawing templateRepresentation-Allows to select the default drawing for the sheet instantiation.
Table managementReference-Allows to declare the tables of required length and width

For the table to be valid:

  • Create four axis system, one at each side preferably at the center.
  • Publish all the axis system and should follow the naming convention for publications as below:
    • EMP_Table_Interface_Top
    • EMP_Table_Interface_Left
    • EMP_Table_Interface_Right
    • EMP_Table_Interface_Bottom
  • EMP_Table_Interface_Top and EMP_Table_Interface_Bottom publications must preferably constitute the length of the table.
  • EMP_Table_Interface_Left and EMP_Table_Interface_Right publications must preferably constitute the width of the table.
  • Create axis system in such a way so that the x-axis always points out of the respective surface, the y-axis always remain along the table, and the z-axis is always perpendicular to X-Y plane.

  • Publish the parameters measuring the length and the width of the table and following below naming convention:
    • EMP_Table_Length
    • EMP_Table_Width
