Most downloads these days allow for pausing and resuming the download. NOTE - Once you get this project set up to your liking, use it as the basis for all your projects, otherwise you will have to do it again.Īs for the download, if it was faulty, you would, more than likely, not have been able to unpack it or install it. Once you save those settings in the project, you should get the IEC menu and blocks when you go to insert a component. Select one of the IEC directories and click OK.ĭo the same with the Icon Menu and select the IEC one there. Under the Library & Icon Menu sections in the project properties, you need to expand the Schematic Libries and Schematic Icone Menu File tree's.Ĭlick on the entry that points to the current library and then click on browse to the right. If it works, you can just overwrite the originals with the larger versions.Īs for the IEC menu and blocks not being used, you will need to set the project to look at the appropriate menu and library folder. This will tell the project to use that version of the default_cat.mdb. Under the Catalog Lookup File Prefence, click 'Other File.' and navigate to one of the to files that are 229Mb. Try going to the Project Properties and pointing the program to one of the latest catalog versions. It sounds like the project is still looking at the original default_cat. Try opening the Manufacturer drop down and see if AB is present. There is also the handy button to totally clear the filters which may cause your missing AB parts to suddenly show up.Īlso, you have drop down menus that list every entry in the particular column. In the filter boxes, you can type partial names, numbers and so on and anything that displays will have the required filter applied.įor example, in the screen shot above, if I was to put CA10 A7 in the catalog filter, the display would only show those entries that begin with CA10 A7 in the catalog number and also had 'KRAUS AND NAIMER' as the maufacturer. The Search is mislabled as the current version only searches the selected table and not the entire database. For example, if you are looking for a relay in the pushbutton table, it won't show up when you do a search. The screenshot shows a filter for 'KRAUS AND NAIMER' branded switches as they are the ones I use the most.Īlso, you need to be in the correct table to find the component. If you are looking for a particular brand of component, make sure that it is in the manufacturer filter.

Were you in the correct Table for the component? Was there anything in the box under Manufacturer? It could be that you used the wrong search.ĭid you use the 'Catalog - Search database' box up the top or did you use the box under the catalog?
