Index Z-1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Table of Contents • vi Y. Glossary of Terms ActiveX Microsoft ActiveX is a relatively new concept. It covers an advanced opportunity to use data from different programs. It is therefore possible to open one program while in another. For example, it is possible to open a Microsoft Word document – with buttons and menus – while using CADdy++ ET or vice versa. The whole workspace can be saved as a compound file. The programs will automatically add their format to Windows, if they support the ActiveX technology. Automatic text An “Automatic text” is a text which is generated by CADdy++ ET. This could for example be the cross references beneath the relay coils. Circuit diagram EN/IEC 61082-1 clause 2.2.1.10, circuit diagram: Diagram showing the implementation of the circuits of a system, subsystem, installation, part, equipment etc., depicting parts and connections by means of graphical symbols arranged to show the functions but without necessarily talking into account the physical sizes, shapes, or locations of the items. Compound A compound file is a “file within a file”, introduced by Microsoft 2000. This enables you to save all data from different programs within the same file. DWG AutoCAD standard format. Besides AutoCAD, there is a group ("Open DWG Alliance"), that can save in this format. Most CAD programs are included in this group. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Glossary of Terms • Y-1 DXF (Data Exchange Format) An exchange format that can be considered as a standard for the exchange of drawings. The exchange works with the help of coordinates and is suited for lines etc. The logic, if any, is not transferred between the systems via this format. FAQ Frequently Asked Questions is where you can find the answer to the most commonly asked questions, in this case concerning CADdy++ ET. Function Groups A way of handling information within the documentation. The trick is to divide information into separate groups (e.g. power supply, control device, emergency stops etc.), and draw/construct each of them separately. Each function must begin with the prefix “=” (function) in accordance with EN 61346. Please refer to Example Project 2, where a basic introduction is given. Index An index is a supplement to a page number. With CADdy++ ET you can optionally choose different indexes, for example "2A", "2AA". 2B" etc. OLE OLE objects give you the possibility of inserting other documents into a CADdy++ ET drawing. For example, a Microsoft Word document can be inserted into a CADdy++ ET drawing, and likewise a picture (or photo) be inserted into Word or CADdy++ ET. The programs will automatically add their format to Windows, if they support the OLE technology. Template A template is a drawing or a project which can be opened in CADdy++ ET and worked with. The template can be empty, or consist of circuit diagrams. Terminal Index The sorting index that is used to decide the order of terminals in a terminal strip. CADdy++ ET automatically counts + 1 for the next terminal. If the sorting index is identical (for example “1”) on all terminals, then they will be arranged according to terminal name. Vector Font A vector font is a CAD font, which is constructed of small lines. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Glossary of Terms • Y-2 The text is made in a matrix of 200 x 200 dots. It is the height and width of the matrix, which is stated in CADdy++ ET. The text in a vector font is somewhat angular in comparison to Windows true-type font. On the contrary, the vector font ISO 3098 is the only well defined text font, which can be used on technical drawings according to EN 61082. If you have to exchange drawings with other formats than CADdy++ ET, it is recommended, that you use vector font instead of truetype font. Windows META file A META file is a file within the Windows format, which can be read and understood by an increasing number of Windows programs. This format can easily exchange drawings and data with other programs. Work Space An area where CADdy++ ET has all kinds of documents, like drawings or circuit diagrams from CADdy++ ET, Word texts, Excel spreadsheets, AutoCAD drawings etc. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Glossary of Terms • Y-3 Copy E-23–E-24, E-26, J-54 Create Sheet C-1, J-6, J-37 Creating a New Project C-1, J-3 Customise E-42 Cut E-23–E-24, E-26 Z.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions The answers, to some of the questions you most likely will ask our hotline service (August 2000), are listed below: Questions about CADdy++ Electrical Engineering 1.1 ? How is a new project created in CADdy++ ET? 1.1 ! It is recommended, that you carry out the Project Example 1 from the beginning. Alternatively, you can see "Creating a new project", where you will be shown how to create a new project. 1.2 ? How is a new page inserted in a project? 1.2 ! Right-click the suggest a page number. in the workspace. CADdy++ ET will Alternatively, please refer to Project Example 1, "Create Sheet 1" to see how a new page is inserted. 1.3 ? How are old symbols loaded from CADdy to CADdy++ ET? 1.3 ! First, you must first create a new database for your CADdy symbols. Rightclick the mouse button in the symbol workspace to do so. Then import the symbols from CADdy to CADdy++ ET. This is done by the function: FILE – IMPORT – CADdy SYMBOLS. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering FAQ • C-1 NB! Your symbols cannot be imported to databases that are supplied by CADdy++ ET. Consequently, you can not initiate an import of a symbol if the active symbol database is for example, “EN60617”, “Danfoss” etc. 1.4 ? Can I load my projects from CADdy ET1 and continue using them with CADdy++ ET? 1.4 ! Yes, you use the command: FILE – OPEN – CADdy DRAWING. All logic, such as cross-references etc., will be transferred to CADdy++ ET, and you can go on working in the new environment of CADdy++ ET. 1.5 ? How is a new symbol made in CADdy++ ET? 1.5 ! It is recommended, that the instructions of Symbols (chapter G) are to be followed. The fundamental techniques are explained here. 1.6 ? How do I insert my company name in the drawing frame? 1.6 ! Please consult the instructions Templates (chapter H), where an easy stepby-step instruction are located. You can also use the A3-template with 10 paths (template "Basic"). The template can be loaded into a new project and collapsed to single drawing elements. Subsequently, the necessary alterations can be done, and everything is assembled to a new drawing frame. This can now be saved as a template, for future use. Drawing frames always have to be saved as templates and never as symbols. 1.7 ? An electrical connection does not open, when I insert a symbol or close when I delete a symbol? 1.7 ! You have drawn a connection between the elements with an ordinary line, instead of using the function 1 Wire Dynamic. Wires are perceived by CADdy++ ET as electrical connections – lines never are! 1.8 ? Can key functions be used in CADdy++ ET? C-2 • FAQ CADdy++ Electrical Engineering 1.8 ! Yes, please refer to list of Hotkeys (chapter D). General Questions 2.1 ? Why is the graphic quality so poor, when I print help files? 2.1 ! The quality depends on your printer. A project example is included in CADdy++ ET. You can better keep track of the project, by printing it via CADdy++ ET. Please note, that this manual also is delivered as Acrobat Reader® files on your CD ROM. 2.2 ? Is there a list of current electronic standards? 2.2 ! Yes, please refer to Standards (chapter F). 2.3 ? What is the technique of “function (=)” and “location (+)”? 2.3 ! Please refer to Reference Designation in chapter K (Example Project 2), where a basic introduction is given. 2.4 ? Why are new letter codes used in Example Project 2 ? 2.4 ! Letter codes (classifications) must be in accordance with the new standard EN 61346-2 table 1 and 2.

The standard introduces a new way of reflecting objects. According to this new standard, objects must be classified in accordance with their purpose or task: The new idea behind this classification always is "what is the real purpose or task of the object", and not "what is the method for implementing the task" or “how it’s physically done". Below, various examples are given. Example 1: A current transformer has the task to pick-up a property from a system and to provide a signal or information that can be further processed. This task is independent from any technical solution of how to do this. The realisation may be done by means of electrical windings in a transformer, but could also be done with an optical current transformer. Whether electrical windings or an optical device are used are of no matter to the classification. The main task is still the same: Converting an input variable into a signal for further processing – classified as B. It is of no importance to the classification, that the transformer in practice is picking up the signal by converting (class “T”) the energy. NOTE: Many objects have more than one task, and only one letter must be used as a classification. Use of class “A” should be avoided, since it’s not very precise. However, almost any object has a main task, and the most descriptive classification must then be used. F-12 • Standards CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Example 2: For controlling the level in a well, two level-switches are used for controlling and one level switch (at top) is used as alarm. In the circuit diagrams, the controlling switches are classified as B, because they convert an input variable (the level) to another signal (on/off) for further processing: If the same type of level switch is used as alarm, the classification of the level switch is still B, since the main task of the object is converting a signal for further processing – and not “making an alarm”. Example 3: Since the letter codes are classifications, they are intended to cover both electrical and mechanical objects. The purpose of a mechanical manometer is e.g. to show pressure. Therefore it’s classified as P – presenting information. The purpose of an electrical signal lamp is also to present information, and therefore it’s classified as P too. HINT 1: The CADdy++ ET symbol library EN61346-2 conforms with these classifications. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Standards • F-13 Extract of EN 61346-2 - Table 1: CODE A Purpose or task of object Two or more purposes or tasks NOTE: This class is only for objects for which no main purpose or task can be identified. B Converting an input variable (physical property, condition or event) into a signal for further processing C Storing material, energy or information D (Reserved for future standardisation) E Providing radiant or thermal energy F Direct protection (self-acting) of a flow of energy, signals, personnel or equipment from dangerous or unwanted conditions Including systems and equipment for protective purposes G Initiating a flow of energy or material Generating signals used as information carriers or reference source Producing a new kind of material or product H (Reserved for future standardisation) I Not to be applied J (Reserved for future standardisation) K Processing (receiving, treating and providing) signals or information (excluding objects for protective purposes, see class F) L (Reserved for future standardisation) M Providing mechanical energy (rotational or linear mechanical motion) for driving purposes N (Reserved for future standardisation) O Not to be applied P Presenting information Q Controlled switching or varying a flow of energy, of signals or of material (For signals in control circuits, see classes K and S) R Restricting or stabilising motion or a flow of energy, information or material S Converting a manual operation into a signal for further processing F-14 • Standards CADdy++ Electrical Engineering T Conversion of energy maintaining the kind of energy Conversion of an established signal maintaining the content of information Conversion of the form or shape of a material U Keeping objects in a defined position V Processing (treating) of material or products (including preparatory and post-treatment) W Guiding or transporting energy, signals, material or products from one place to another X Connecting objects Y (Reserved for future standardisation) Z (Reserved for future standardisation) HINT 1: If more than one reference name can be used, the most specific name should be applied. For example, use the letter code “S” on a pushbutton including a signal lamp (on the pushbutton (class S) as well as the signal lamp (class P)), because this is the most important letter (dependent of the function, however).

Symbols Introduction You can use the included graphical symbols (according to EN 60617), when constructing electrical circuit diagrams in CADdy++ ET. Normally, the symbols found in EN 60617 are sufficient when drawing circuit diagrams. You can also design your own symbols, such as symbols used for more special assignments. This means, that you are able to define your own symbols and save them in your symbol library for later application. HINT 1: If you lack a symbol, you can use a black-box (rectangle, symbol no. 02-01-02 in EN 60617). The rectangle symbolises all kinds of electrical objects. Therefore, it is not necessary to define your own symbols! There are 8 rectangles in the symbol database EN 60617, which cover 1 – 8 paths. These symbols are located in the folder General named "Component – 1 …. – 8." There is also a construction-set of boxes in EN 61346-2 in the folder General named "Device 1 of 3”, “Device 2 of 3” and “Device 3 of 3”. To create one component, each device are inserted and linked together by giving it the same reference designation. Example: A circuit diagram requires an electrical dimmer (Conson type DC 1000). The dimmer has 14 connections. Choose the symbol "Component –2": CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-1 The symbol includes all the necessary text reservations. The symbol is illustrated below, displaying all the text possibilities. The desired connections can be filled out the same way as other symbols. The special symbol is now completed and documented: NB: Letter Codes on these general symbols must be changed in accordance to EN 61346-2 (former IEC 750). For example, "K" in the above illustrated example. You must start from the beginning or base the new symbol on a similar symbol, when defining a new additional symbol. HINT 2: Reuse a symbol, which resembles the new symbol, so that size, text location etc. will be correct. HINT 3: All symbols in CADdy++ ET fits into a 5 mm grid. It is recommended, that your own symbols likewise fit into a 5 mm grid. The procedures describe, how you can define symbols and save them in the symbol database. G-2 • Symbols CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Defining a Symbol The electrical symbols, when inserted in a drawing, must be defined with properties understood by CADdy++ ET. All the elements in the symbol must be grouped in order for the symbol to function correctly. Constructing the Graphics In the following example, it is illustrated how to define a relay coil. Start by drawing all the graphical elements, which you want in the symbol. You must use the ordinary drawing functions such as Line, Circle, etc. Remember to define the element with the appropriate line width. Insert the symbol’s text, when the graphics are finished. You must use the ordinary text functions. You must choose the property of the text, when inserting the text on the symbol. Quick Guide: 1. Firstly, you have to construct the graphics for the symbol, (example: a relay coil): You must use the ordinary drawing functions e.g. a Line, when you construct the graphic part. HINT 1: Remember to set the grid size at 5 mm before you start drawing. 2.) Insert the New Text for the symbol and provide them with certain properties. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-3 A symbol for a relay coil usually contains the following texts with different properties: - 1 component name (K) - 1 function (empty text) - 1 type (empty text) - 2 connections (A1 and A2) Quick Guide: 2a.) Choose New Text. The following dialog box will appear: 2b.) Write a text – for example. "K" 2c.) Click the Attribute button. 2d.) Choose a property for the text – in this case, Name (-): 2e.) Insert the text (right aligned) into the drawing in the correct position. 2f.) Repeat 2e.) when inserting the function and type text. G-4 • Symbols CADdy++ Electrical Engineering 2g.) Repeat 2e.) when inserting the text for the 2 connections (left aligned). The connections have to be inserted with the attribute connection. NOTE: When inserting a connection, it is important, that the text is placed exactly where the connection to the graphical part is to be located. You can move the actual text later on. You can find a complete list of text attributes in the section New Text in chapter E. 3.) You must now group the elements. Please refer to Group Elements . Group Elements When you have created the graphics and inserted the text, group the elements. Quick Guide: 1. Select each element, which will be used in the symbol, by pointing at the element and clicking the left mouse button. You must hold down SHIFT, while you are pointing. OR Frame the elements you want to group (the chosen elements are highlighted red on the screen). 2. Choose the function Group Selected OR Click the right mouse button and choose the function Group Selected. – the following dialog box will appear: 3. Assign the symbol with a property, for example a coil. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-5 HINT 1: A complete list of possible symbol properties can be found in: Group Selected in chapter E. 4. Press OK. The elements are now assembled as a symbol. 5. Finally, you must save the symbol. Please refer to: Save Symbol. Save Symbol The symbols have to be saved in the symbol database. This can be done, when you have grouped the elements as a symbol. Before you go on, it is a prerequisite, that you have studied following chapters: Constructing the Graphics and Group Elements . Quick Guide: 1. The symbol has to be present on the screen. 2. Select the symbol (highlighted red), and hold the left mouse button down. If you want to save several symbols together, hold SHIFT down, while you are selecting. 3. "Drag" the symbol(s) to the folder in the symbol database, where you want to save it. NOTE: Symbols must be saved in your own symbol database. Avoid changing the symbol databases delivered by CADdy++ ET, because your alterations will not be saved, when CADdy++ ET is updated. 4. The following dialog box appears: 5. Type a symbol name and a description if desired. Press OK. 6. The symbol can now be loaded from the symbol database. G-6 • Symbols CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Edit Symbol You are able to create new symbols, by using already constructed symbols as a basis. Quick Guide: 1. Choose a symbol from the symbol folder, which you wish to work with. Insert the symbol into the drawing 2. Select the symbol (highlights red). 3. Click the right mouse button. 4. Choose Ungroup Selected. The symbol is now no longer a group, but consists of individual elements. You are now able to change the graphics or the text belonging to the new symbol. When the new symbol is completed, the elements must be grouped again. Quick Guide: 1. Select the items, which you want to group (highlights red). 2. Click the right mouse button. 3. Choose Group Selected. 4. Assign the new symbols with the correct properties. A list of symbol types can be found in the section Group Selected (chapter E). 5. The symbol can be saved as described in the section Save Symbol (see page G-6). CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-7 Symbol Database The symbols in CADdy++ ET are saved in a symbol database in Microsoft Access® format. The following section describes how you can manipulate a database and its contents. To work with symbols in CADdy++ ET, press the SYMBOLS button in the workspace: Location The symbol database is always located in the folder which is chosen in the function System Settings (chapter E). The contents of the folder is loaded by CADdy++ ET, when the program is started. The database contains all information concerning the symbols and has the extension <.CPS>. NOTE: Ensure that you have full access (reading and writing) to the folder, where the symbol database is located. This is important, because CADdy++ ET locks and releases these while in use. Manipulating You have the possibility to change the name of a symbol database, copy or delete a symbol database. This can be done by using Windows Explorer, where you are able to locate the symbol database folder. NOTE: CADdy++ ET must be closed before you alter the name of the database, copy or delete the database. Example: You would like to copy the Component Group database and create a new database called Own Components. Quick Guide: 1.) Close CADdy++ ET (important!!). 2.) Open Window Explorer and choose the folder, which contains the symbol database. G-8 • Symbols CADdy++ Electrical Engineering 3.) Find the file: Component Groups.cps. 4.)

Therefore, it is recommended that you copy the symbol database before manipulating. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering PLC Documentation General Up till now, the typical way of drawing PLC cards has been to draw it “the-way-it-looks”, e.g.: However, this is basically not in accordance with IEC 61082, since a circuit diagram consist of symbols, and the example above is a “real drawing” (within the circuit diagram). Another problem with drawing a PLC “the-way-it-looks” is, that you must have a “drawing” of any PLC you intend to use present, before drawing. You might even have to make a new “drawing” for each new PLC you want! We have provided our product with the right and very simple solution: A PLC represented by either one symbol with max. 8 channels, or an unlimited construction-set of three symbols, in which you can document any PLC you wish. The symbol we suggest is no. 02-01-02 in IEC 60617. The symbol itself represents an object, and is recognised as a PLC by adding various texts, a reference designation (classification) and maybe additional graphics (option). As something unique in our product, it’s possible to link symbols with one-another, to create one component: This technique is basically used when making PLC’s with more than 8 channels. In the next chapter we have provided an example of the correct documentation for a PLC, and we recommend that you implement this technique yourself, since it’s easy to use and timesaving. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-13 NOTE: The reference designation (e.g. ”-K2”) combined with the symbol(s) illustrates the PLC and not a ”drawing”. Please note, that PLC’s are classified with a ”D” in former IEC 750, and with a ”K” in the new EN 61346-2 table 1. Please refer to Letter Codes in chapter F. This is incorporated in the symbol libraries. The symbols shown in the next chapters are all you need to make a complete documentation of your specific PLC. • NOTE: G-14 • Symbols All PLC symbols shipped with our product fits on A3 paper in a path of 40 mm designed in grid size 5 mm. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering PLC Signal Card A signal card is a symbol, which corresponds with a PLC Reference Card – just like a contact (e.g. NO) corresponds with the relay coil. However, the PLC signals are more advanced, since both reference designation and the terminals must be equal before a cross-reference is made. The signal card is inserted anywhere needed in the circuit diagrams. PLC Signal Card: NOTE: The symbol fits in 40 mm path. 1: Description (e.g. ”START MOTOR”) 2: PLC address (option). Applies in the PLC I/O list 3: PLC Operand (e.g. ”A1.1”). 4: Reference designation (Function =, location +, and product -) for the reference card. Must be equal to #6 in the reference card. 5: Signal terminal. Corresponds with #11 in the reference card. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-15 Overview of Signal Cards Below you will find an overview of signals, located in the library EN 60617 and EN 61346-2 in folder PLC: Name Description Signal –1, down Signal card with 1 terminal, direction downwards (see above). Typically use: DI and DO with common supply. Show me: 43UK-PLC-SignalCard-1.avi Signal –1, up Signal card with 1 terminal, direction upwards. Typically use: DI and DO with common supply. Signal –3 , down Signal card with 3 terminals, direction downwards. Typically use: Potential free DI and DO (use only 2 of 3 terminals), AI and AO signals and measuring objects (e.g. resistors). Signal –3 , up Signal card with 3 terminals, direction upwards. Typically use: Potential free DI and DO (use only 2 terminals), AI and AO signals and measuring objects (e.g. resistors). PLC Reference Card A reference card is a symbol, which includes all information concerning I/O, common powersupply, bus connections etc. The reference card tracks all used PLC Signal Cards and inserts the cross-reference to each signal – just like a relay coil corresponds with the contacts. However the PLC reference card and signals are more advanced, since both reference designation and the terminals must be equal before a cross-reference is made. G-16 • Symbols CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Basic reference card: 6: Reference designation for the PLC. Corresponds with #4 in the signal card. If the reference designation #4 is equal to #6, the signal belongs to the card. 7: Free text. Typically use for ID of the PLC, e.g. “Siemens”, “Allen-Bradley” etc. 8: PLC type. E.g. “S-700”. Applies in the list of products. 9: PLC Signal Operand (e.g. ”A1.1”). 10: Cross reference to the sheet and path where the signal is located. 11: PLC Signal Terminal(s). Corresponds with #5 in the signal card. 12: Additional graphics (option). Used for graphical illustration of each I/O, for example DO as shown above. 13: Terminals on the PLC itself. For example power supply, bus connection etc. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-17 Overview of Reference Cards Below you will find an overview over Reference Cards, located in the library EN 60617 and EN 61346-2 in folder PLC: Name Description Reference, 8 ch.

Reference, 3 of 3 Construction-set (reference card) part 3 with 8 I/O and 6 terminals (see above). The card is the third (and last) part, since the rectangle is open on the left side. NOTE: G-18 • Symbols You must “link” all additional parts of the PLC (e.g. constructionset part 2 and 3) to part 1, so it’s treated as one object. The link is created, when the reference designation is equal. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering This is typically done by renaming part 2, 3 etc. Show me: 43UK-PLC-Link.avi When the link is created, you can’t unlink it again, unless deleting the item. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-19 PLC Additional Graphics Additional graphics are intended to illustrate each I/O on the PLC Reference Card if desired. You can use a basic line, potential-free contact, magnetic valve, DI/DO with common supply, AO and AI (voltage or current) – or nothing – as decribed. You are also free to mix all types as you please, since it has no influence on the card itself. HINT 1: By using our construction-set and the additional graphics, you can illustrate any PLC you want. If the PLC is used many times, you can make a new group of you own construction and save is as a new symbol. Overview of Additional Graphics Name Description Add-on AI Illustrates Analog Input (AI).

CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Symbols • G-21 G-22 • Symbols CADdy++ Electrical Engineering H. Templates Introduction Templates can be an important part of a project. A template can be a drawing-sheet, complete circuits diagrams, or anything else you want on your drawing. The templates may be constructed from the beginning, or you can use a drawing-sheet included in the CADdy++ ET program. The drawing-sheet can then be changed as desired. For example, a logo can be inserted into a standard drawing-sheet. There is distinguished between project templates of one or more pages, or drawing templates on one page. Workspace Template The project template can contain one or more pages. Every page is based on a Page Template (please refer to section Page Template ). The project templates are saved in the folder Templates in System Settings with the function Workspace Template (Save as…). The project template is opened, when you create a New Workspace. You can now choose between all the project templates in the dialog box: CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Templates • H-1 (NOTE: Various contents of the dialog may appear). A project template is the basis of every new project: The contents of a project template can be a A4-format cover-sheet, a couple of circuit diagrams in A3-format, and an empty page to draw on, for example. The project templates contain the settings of the graphical lists etc. You determine the contents and extent of a project template. The template can vary in size and substance. When working with CADdy++ ET, time can be saved if the right contents is combined in the templates. Please refer to Create a new Project in Project Example 1 (chapter J). Page Template Page-templates always consist of one page and are mainly used for defining drawing-sheets and graphical lists (list of terminals, list of cables, etc.). Besides the drawing-sheet, the page-template can contain a circuit diagram, which can be inserted as a unit on a new sheet in your project. The drawing templates can be opened and saved by using the following functions: Page Template (Save as…) and Open Page Template. Drawing Sheet Typically, you will need to define one or more standard drawing-sheets. These sheets are saved as a Page Template H-2 • Templates CADdy++ Electrical Engineering A template with a drawing-sheet will function correctly if all elements in the template are grouped and designed as a Drawing Sheet. The easiest method is to use the included page-templates and hereafter add company name, logo etc. A drawing-sheet can also be created from the beginning. HINT 1: It is recommended that you use a sheet in A3-format with 10 paths numbered from 09. Following are descriptions of different possibilities when designing drawing-sheets. CADdy++ ET Drawing Sheet You can choose a standard CADdy++ ET drawing-sheet and add your company name and logo. The CADdy++ ET templates suggest a number of different drawing-sheets. The standard CADdy++ ET drawing-sheets are made in accordance to current standards (EN 61082-1). All the suggested drawing-sheets are in ISO A3-format and are intended to be printed in ISO A4-format, where holes etc. are taken into consideration. Quick Guide: 1.) Create a New Workspace, and choose a suitable template. 2.) Create a New Page. 3.) Select All elements (CTRL + A) on the drawing. 4.) Ungroup Selected (drawing-sheet) to single elements. 5.) Insert company name, logo etc. in the lower left corner of the drawing sheet Hint 1: You can insert logo etc. as OLE objects, or you can import these via AutoCAD DXF or DWG format. Hint 2: It is recommended that you insert a logo etc. as graphics. In a drawing, OLE objects take up considerably more space than graphics. Besides, it is easier to convert CADdy++ ET to DWG format, when you use graphics. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Templates • H-3 6.) Select all elements (CTRL + A) in the drawing. 7.)

H-6 • Templates CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J. Project Example 1 Introduction With this project example, you will gain experience using CADdy++ ET and at the same time learn the fundamental CADdy++ ET functions. The following project is an example of a project consisting of two circuit diagrams. The first sheet contains a circuit diagram for supplying a motor (power circuit). The second sheet contains a circuit diagram for controlling a motor (control circuit). Please note that the electrical construction, which you will draw is only an exercise – and wouldn’t be able to function in reality. In the sheets, you must insert electrical symbols that are connected to each other with wires. NOTE: There is a big difference between drawing lines and wires. Wires are regarded by CADdy++ ET as real electrical connections – lines are not. Abbreviations ENTER Click the left mouse button or press ENTER. ESC Click the right mouse button or press ESC.

M Save A list of available templates will appear: CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-3 • Project Example 1 The template “Basic” is empty. * BASIC M OK The following dialog box will appear: At the top of the dialog box, you can see in which folder your set of sheets is placed (*.CPJ). Customer Information In this field, you can type information regarding the customer. General Information about the Sheet J-4 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering In the field, "Description line01 … 10", you have the possibility of typing descriptions of the sheets. These descriptions will automatically be inserted into allocated spaces in the title field. In this project example, description line01, 02 and 03 are used to describe the project: * Description line01: # Shipdog Inc. * Description line02: # London 1234 * Description line03: # Demo project in CADdy++ In our project example, description line04 is used to define the drawing number: * Description line04: # 99.001 HINT 1: Description line01 - 10 are the same in all of the sheets in your project. Consequently, if you change the information in Project Information, the change will CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-5 • Project Example 1 appear in all of the sheets. The Setup of a New Sheet The standard setup for the set of diagrams are in ISO A3 format. The parameters are given via the template you choose (BASIC), however, you can change these in your own project later. Draw Sheet 1 This chapter shows you, step by step, how to draw the circuit diagram on sheet 1. Create Sheet 1 You will now create the first sheet in the project. The project consists of sheets 1 and 2, but first you must create sheet 1. Quick Guide: Select PROJECT as shown below: The workspace will appear as shown below: M Click with right mouse button on: Circuit Diagram The following dialog box will appear: J-6 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Type the following information in the dialog box: * Sheet (page): # Number of the sheet: "1" (automatically suggested by CADdy++ ET) * Description line01: # Circuit Diagram * Description line02: # Inlet * Description line03: # Motor reverse * Description line04: # A (revision letter) * Created date: # CADdy++ ET automatically inserts the date, but this can be changed if desired. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-7 • Project Example 1 M OK CADdy++ ET now opens sheet 1. HINT 1: The first time a sheet of a new project is opened, it is not full size. You can maximize the size of the sheet by clicking in the top right corner of the sheet. CADdy++ ET will remember the chosen size when opening the next sheet. J-8 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Sheet 1 is now illustrated on the screen: Potentials on Sheet 1 You will now insert 5 potentials on sheet 1. First, insert the 3 top potentials. Quick Guide: Potential - Top # L1 M OK CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-9 • Project Example 1 Potential – Top HINT 1: Alternatively, you can press F11. HINT 2: When naming the potentials and conductors in power circuits, the conductors must be named according to IEC 60445. This standard states that the names of the potentials have to be separated from the rest of the text with a,";", – ex. "-1Q3;L1", "1Q3;L2" etc. # L2 M OK Potential – Top # L3 M OK You now have to insert the 2 bottom potentials. Quick Guide: Potential – Bottom # PE M OK HINT 3: Alternatively, you can press F12.

J-10 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-11 • Project Example 1 Electrical Symbols on Sheet 1 You will now insert electrical symbols in the circuit diagram. Prepare CADdy++ ET to work with symbols: In the dialog box on the left hand side of the workspace, press SYMBOLS as shown below: The workspace will appear as shown below: Select Symbol Database CADdy++ ET symbols are divided into symbol databases. J-12 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering There is a database of graphical symbols for diagrams according to EN 60617 and another including symbols for the layout of switch-boards from Danfoss, Siemens, etc. Select the database that contains the symbols, you wish to work with. In this case, select the EN60617 (please refer to .) The symbol database is divided into different folders such as relay coils, transformers and motors. Select the folder for the specific symbol you wish to work with. Now select the symbol and insert it in the circuit diagram. M Symbol database M Symbol folder + Mark the symbol you want to use. The symbols are shown in numerical/alphabetical order. When the cursor points at the symbol name, it will appear graphically in the window at the bottom of the dialog box. “Drag” the symbol with the cursor to the desired place in the sheet. HINT 1: The symbols are automatically named as: SHEET/LETTER CODE/PATH at the same moment they are placed in the sheet. This does not apply for certain symbols, e.g. cables, terminal blocks and contacts. In these case, you must define the association yourself. Example: Protective device (Q) is inserted on sheet 1 in path 3. CADdy++ ET names the protective device 1Q3. NB: According to EN 61346, a symbol (object) must be named with a minus (-) as prefix to the name to verify that it is a product (ex. a relay). A minus sign will not be used in this project example when naming the symbols. You can choose to add a minus sign in front of every symbol if you wish. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-13 • Project Example 1 Please refer to: for objects.

The symbol is highlighted red, and indicates which symbol you are presently editing. J-16 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering * Name # 1Q3 (can be changed to "-1Q3", but is not changed in this project example.) * Type # 3VE NOTE: All the examples illustrated in this project are fictitious. Therefore, you do not have to insert the symbol type. It is probable, that your company uses other type numbers. When you have inserted a symbol in the sheet, CADdy++ ET instantaneously updates the sheet in a Microsoft Access97 database. While you draw, CADdy++ ET constantly updates the database! HINT 1: As something unique for CADdy++ ET you can choose to edit all texts in the database, and your sheet will be updated at once! This ensures overview and saves time. The symbol has connection numbers 1-6, and it is these numbers you have to apply. You can also choose to change numbers in the dialog box. M OK CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-17 • Project Example 1 Exercise 1: You will now change the type of the circuit breaker and the motor to the following: Circuit Breaker: Type "S3" Motor: Type "M10" HINT 2: The sign for functional earthing conductor in the fourth connection on the motor appears by pressing and holding ALT + 161 on the numeric keyboard (ASCII code 161) and an “í” shows. This only applies if you use the ISO 3098 font. HINT 3: If you prefer to use a protective conductor, in the fourth connection, press and hold ALT + 160 on the numeric keyboard (ASCII code 160); and an “á” appears. This only applies if you use the ISO 3098 font (Font 1). HINT 4: When naming terminals in power circuits, be sure to name and mark them according to IEC 60445.

M OK + Click the right mouse button to end CADdy++ ET does not automatically name the terminal strip. This is due to the fact, that several methods exist for naming terminal stripes and terminals according to EN 61666. In this project example “X1” has been chosen as a name for the terminal strip. The terminal strip has been named X1: 1-2-3-4-5 Please refer to: . Terminal Strip with 4 Terminals on Sheet 1 You will now insert a terminal strip with 4 terminals in the path 3 below the bottom potentials: Quick Guide: M Terminals M 4 terminals 0°, vertical + Select the place on the sheet where you want to insert the terminal strip (the symbol is attached to the cursor). CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-21 • Project Example 1 + Click the left mouse button to insert the symbols You do not have to name the terminal block, because CADdy++ ET automatically remembers “X1” from the previous terminal strip. CADdy++ ET automatically increases the terminal number and terminal index with +1. M OK + Click the right mouse button to end The terminal number has been named: X1: 6-7-8-9 J-22 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Connect Symbols on Sheet 1 You will now connect the inserted symbols with each other. NB: There is a big difference between drawing lines and wires. Wires are regarded by CADdy++ ET as real electrical connections - lines are not. CADdy++ ET automatically inserts contact points, when you connect the symbols with each other. Therefore, the symbols are always connected with wires as if they were “real components”. Quick Guide (3-pole): Connect 3-pole + Select potential L1 Be sure to select potential L1 in an exact straight line above terminal X1:1. Select terminal X1:1 (path 2). You can see that three wires have been drawn: From potential L1 to terminal X1:1 From potential L2 to terminal X1:2 From potential L3 to terminal X1:3 + Select motor 1M3 terminal U1 You can see that three wires have been drawn: From potential L1 to terminal U1 From potential L2 to terminal V1 From potential L3 to terminal W1 You will now connect potential N with terminal X1:4 and connect potential PE with terminal X1:5 and terminal PE. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-23 • Project Example 1 Quick Guide (1-pole): Connect 1-pole + Select potential N Select terminal number X1:4 You can see that a wire has been drawn from potential N to terminal 4. Follow the method described above to connect potential PE with X1:5 and 1M3:PE. HINT 1: You can also use different function keys (CTRL + F1 ... F6) to activate the connecting functions. HINT 2: Practice connecting as much as possible in one turn – for example 3-pole from the top potential to the bottom symbol in each path. The more you can connect at a time, the faster it goes – also when deleting connections! Wires on Sheet 1 You will now connect from the vertical wires in path 3, through the three-pole circuit breaker in path 4, and back to the vertical wires in path 3. Quick Guide: Connect 1-pole + Select the starting point for the wire + Draw the wire horizontally to the next point + Click the left mouse button Note that CADdy++ ET automatically inserts contact points! + Draw the wire vertically down through the circuit breaker to the next point. Note that CADdy++ ET automatically opens the wires on each side of the circuit breaker.

Relay coil type: HINT 1: Type "3TB4011" (A fictitious type number) The updated database contains both coils and contacts. With a little practice, you can use this database to track contacts that are not connected to coils and vice versa. For example, if ”1K5” is only inserted in the project as a NO contact, but you have "forgotten" the coil, 1K5 will appear alone on the list and the coil above it is not CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-25 • Project Example 1 shown. Therefore, you can check for errors on coils and contacts in the database! J-26 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Connect Relay Coil on Sheet 1 You will now connect relay coil 1K5 with potentials L3 an N. Quick Guide: Connect 1-pole + Select potential L3 in an exact straight line above relay coil 1K5 + Draw the connection down through 1K5 and end on potential N CADdy++ ET automatically inserts contact points! You can see that a wire has been drawn from potential L3 - via 1K5 – to potential N. + Click the right mouse button to end Circuit Breaker in a Connection on Sheet 1 So far, you have only inserted symbols and connected them with wires. You will now try to insert the symbols in existing wires. Every time you insert a symbol in a wire, the wire will automatically break and the symbol will be connected correctly. HINT 1: If CADdy++ ET does not break the wire or cable when you insert a symbol, you have by mistake used an ordinary line instead of a wire to connect your symbols. Insert a circuit breaker in path 5 in the existing connection.

You have now completed the second sheet in the project example. The sheet is illustrated below : CADdy++ Electrical Engineering J-63 • Project Example 1 J-64 • Project Example 1 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering K. Project Example 2 Introduction CADdy++ ET economy: Project Example 2 is intended for experienced CADdy++ ET users that either have completed Project Example 1, or users that have a background knowledge of constructing electrical circuit diagrams. It is an advantage, if you have basic knowledge of the standards for symbols on electrical engineering drawings. In this project example, there is special emphasis on the technical review of a specific project. The purpose of the project is not to draw the diagrams from the beginning, but to enlighten you with some of the special functions that CADdy++ ET manages. Project Example 2 expires the technique of function (=) and location (+) as described in EN 61346-1. Classification of objects; functions (=) as well as components (-), are in accordance with EN 61346-2 table 1. You will find a complete edition of project example 2 in the project folder PROJECTS. Reference Designation This chapter introduces the philosophy of reference designation: The function (=), location (+) and product (-) aspect as described in EN 61346-1. Definition A reference system is typical a number and letter system. It enables simple and precise orientation in a factory or in machinery, for example. The reference system must be based on the international standard, EN/IEC 61346-1. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Project Example 2 • K-1 This standard states that the three prefix signs ”=”, ”+” and ”-” can be used to construct a system, which inspects an object. An object can be a component, machine or installation, for example. The prefix signs can be provided with a combination of letters and numbers, which indicate a specific and unique technical description. Therefore, these signs are independent of profession and sub-suppliers language. A reference system is therefore a correct technical abbreviation used to describe the construction, function and location of the machinery. NOTE: It is of great importance to note, that the three prefix signs ”=”, +” and ”-” each and individually carries the respective information about an objects function (=), location (+) and product (-), and that each information is not dependent on any other. With a little preparation, the system can be constructed, so that later changes, such as expansions and dismantlingcanbe added easily. Example The factory “Production Ltd.” wishes to describe a section of a process, which produces slices. The process includes Blockpress no. II, which is physically located in the production hall. Without a reference system, it would be necessary in writing to describe following: - the Blockpress II is part of a larger process, - an explanation of the entire process, and the physical location of the blockpress. For example, the written description of the placement of the blockpress would be, “the blockpress is placed in the production hall beside the other blockpresses”. This description is not very precise, and therefore can be easily misunderstood. Employees, who are at the factory on a daily basis, would be able to understand this description. However, guest workers, technical documentation and computer based maintenance would have difficulty comprehending long written descriptions. K-2 • Project Example 2 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering If a reference designation system is established, the above description could be as follows: =T1=R2 +11A2 ”=T1=R2” explains that blockpress 2 (R2) is part of a process (T1), which stabilises material forms. ”+11A2” is the precise physical location (for example, a co-ordinate or zone) that cannot be misunderstood. Likewise, components can be named. This is done by using ”-”, which indicates that it is a product. It is an advantage that letter codes in a reference system are in accordance to the new standard; EN 61346-2 table 1 and 2. CE-marking According to EN 60204-1 clause18, electrical equipment of machines must have a reference designation system in accordance with EN 61346-1. A reference system gives an excellent overview of the complete installation and facilitates the compulsory account required by the Machine Directive. Empirical advantages A factory or a machine will typically need a reference system, when the installation or machinery is of a certain size. However, this need could apply to nearly all factories. If the system is well structured and thorough, following is accomplished: 1.) All professions ”speak the same language”, because everyone refers to the same system. 2.) The documentation for all of the installations is understandable and accessible. 3.) New workers and guest workers etc. can easily be guided to understand complex installations. CADdy++ Electrical Engineering Project Example 2 • K-3 4.) The location of the components is 100 % clear. 5.) A systematic computerised maintenance is possible. Experience shows that there are certain economical and practical advantages, by using a reference system from the beginning of a project, in contrast to establishing it later on in the process. Abbreviations In Example Project 2 you can see, that the following reference designations appears: Function (=) structure Within the function structure, you will find the following: =E1 Lightning and outlets =G1 Power Supply =K1 Control unit (PLC) =V1 Process 1 =V2 Process 2 =X1 Terminals for external connections NOTE: In this example, all lettercodes in the function structure above are in accordance with EN 61346-2 table 1. Location (+) structure Within the location structure, you will find the following: K-4 • Project Example 2 CADdy++ Electrical Engineering +A1 Incoming power cabinet and power distribution. Components regarding the process 1 and 2 (=V1 and =V2) are also located here. +A2 PLC cabinet. Physically separated from +A1 and +A3 due to EMC. +A3 Cabinet for common installations such as outlets and lightning system. Physically separated from +A1 and +A2. +A4 Cabinet for PLC (=K1) and other controlling devices. NOTE: In this example, all lettercodes in the location structure above are fiction. Still, the lettercode “A” indicates two or more functions in accordance with EN 61346-2 table 1. Product (-) structure On the left side of each component you will find a product code (-) and a number. These product codes are in accordance with EN 61346-2 table 1, and describes the purpose of the object. In Example Project 2, the numbers describe the sheet and path where the component is documented. For example: "-K125": means relay (K) + sheet (12) + path (5). In this case, the element can be found on sheet 12 path 5. Please note, that this numbering only is suitable for sheets with a maximum of 10 paths of 1 digit each, e.g. path 0…9., path 1…8 etc. The maximum of 1 digit in the path avoids confusion.
