Helo,

 

     As am working in schematic style set alteration I want to show total number pins in a connector. And it should called from vesys component library. I have tried this option to show number of pins in a connector,  but I got only the option "number of pins in use". If anybody having idea how to show the total number of pins in a connector, let me know.

 

 

 

Thanks and Regards,

How to show node to node dimension in vesys 2.0 Harness & dual dimension option?

$
0
0

Hi,

 

     As per vesys classic input we would like to show node to node dimension, We don't want to show major dimension, we want to show only point to point distance information. I tried to control this through style set but, if I hide this major dimension in style set, dimension in bundle without node are not visible

 

Image for your reference,

 

 

After Hiding Major dimension through style set, Dimension are not visible,

 

Let me have any suggestion to show point to point dimension...

 

And is there any option to show dual dimension as like vesys classic,

Manoj

Remove thermal Override.

Hi all ,

I am working with Tie legs, ther is no problem to change and modify it , but sometimes i need to reset or "Remove thermal Override" and i can't do it .

Useless --> UsePadstackThermalDefaults - in my case i set it False and True and it's gave me same result in "Pin Thermal" Properties and sets  "Default through hole connections" even "Use thermal definition from padstack" are marked  .

1.As you can see no Override .

2.UsePadstackThermalDefaults Set True

3.UsePadstackThermalDefaults Set False and it's same as True .

I saw lot of discussions about but without answers , in my opinion it's Mentor BUG .

if you know some workaround please share it here .

 

Thanks you .

Is anyone using EE 7.9.2 in a productive environment?

I'm astonished to see SPac 1 released without major Bugfixes.

Is EE 7.9.2 really running stable, or is nobody using it up to now?

 

What are you experiences on EE 7.9.2?

Any new issues found, compared to EE 7.9.1?

 

Any feedback is appreciated.

 

Best regards

Grey out Selection of 'Integrated Project' for PADS Standard License

$
0
0

It would be good to grey out the selection for 'integrated projects' when a user has a 'PADS Standard' Suite license.  For new users this will save confusion.  There is a license warning message but it not self explanatory.  "There is no PADS license feature available. Project will not be opened."

Maybe if it read "integrated projects are not supported with your current license". 

Just a suggestion.

net0 in nmPEX

Hello again! I made a block with 4 pins: VDD, GND, in, out

When I run nmPEX and I read the netlist, I see it finds capacitances between GND and net0! What is net0? How should I have to interpret it? Let's say I have a capacitance between out and GND, and another one between out and net0: should I have to add those capacitance (thus considering net0=GND)? What about the capacitance between GND and net0, then?

Thanks for your help!

This is just a test post - pls disregard

This document explains all the factors and data point considered by the Tuning Meter, and discusses how it arrives at the ranges and targets shown and why they can differ from the ranges shown in Constraint Manager.  It covers how to interpret the Tuning Meter and use it as a helpful interactive guide to tuning routing within tolerance within the layout tool alone.

Importing HKP files to PADS VX Intergrated Flow?

Hello everyone,

 

Is there any way to import HKP files to PADS VX? My issue is that neither Accelerated Designs ' Ultra Librarian or PCB Libraries' Library Expert support importing to the PADS VX Integrated Flow. Both applications do support exporting to Expedition via HKP files.

 

And Yes, I already did check PartQuest... None of the parts I need have footprints there.

DXF Export of Bottom Assembly Drawing has a Text Offset

$

I'm trying to export a DXF drawing of my assembly outlines and reference designators. For the top side this works fine. On the bottom side all reference designators have an offset. They are starting at the position where they should end.

 

At first it seems he is trying to mirror the text on a Edge.

 

But now I tryed all combinations of different text origins, text mirror checkbox & export mirror checkbox enableing and the result is allways the same.

 

There must be another option.

 

Is there an alternative to export am assembly drawing?

 

I'm using X-ENTP VX.1 Update 14

I've been trying to output true type font from the silkscreen generator with no success. All the silkscreen generator does is outline the true type font. I come from a PADS background and have used true type font on many designs with no issues, is it possible to use true type fonts  on the silkscreen in Xpedition VX 1.1? If so, how?

to whom it may concern,

 

I requested for a free PADS viewer SW yesterday, and, after receiving and installing the viewer through an auto-generated activation email, the display language of the viewer turned out to be in simplified Chinese (note:  i live in Taiwan and the common written language here is TRADITIONAL CHINESE).  To my dismay there’s no way to change the display language and all the menu items are gibberish to me.  Can you pls supply me with an ENGLISH viewer? Thank you so much!
