Rittal releases EPLAN platform version 1.9
Rittal is introducing a new release of its EPLAN Platform on stand D32 at the 2008 Drives & Controls exhibition. Version 1.9 is versatile, practice-oriented and offers real-world, customer-driven features. The platform includes EPLAN Electric P8, EPLAN Fluid and EPLAN PPE, which are all based on a uniform database. New features and functional innovations from version 1.9 can therefore be found in all three products, with users benefiting from integrated data handling across the entire process.
Highlights include:
Flexible parts management - also via SQL: In addition to the commercial and technical components data, the EPLAN parts management now stores logical function descriptions. Due to new individual classification attributes, devices are now being designed, controlled and analysed in an optimal manner leading to short access times and multi-user handling for simultaneous access by many project participants.
Redlining - fast accurate modifications: With the new redlining function, the entire documentation can be transferred to the PDF format and subsequently released for modification data. Modifications can also now be re-imported as graphic elements into the original EPLAN project.
Performance levels supported - freedom to choose: Version 1.9 allows users to reduce the complexity of the system on an individual basis. During start-up, the system configuration, which is designed for three proficiency levels, is selected. Operating errors and unmanageable application frustrations are now a thing of the past.
