  1. Eplan Electrical Symbol Library Download This tab is used to assign symbols to the EPLAN 5 symbol libraries used in the selected macros. If the program knows the origin of the symbol library, then the assignment occurs automatically and this is.
  2. High-end automation components form the basis for powerful solutions and the financial success of our customers. Development, project engineering and documentation play a key role along the different stations in the life cycle of machines and plants. Bachmann electronic supports its customers in advanced engineering and efficiency with master data and macros for EPLAN® Electric.

Symbols are compiled, edited, and managed in symbol libraries. The project settings (inherited by symbols, e.g. line thickness of the symbol) for the current project are used in managing the symbol libraries.

Warning:

As a professional EPLAN user, starting in Version 2.8 you have an EPLAN Project available with more than 370 P&I diagrams and control diagrams for building automation. The corresponding function lists according to the VDI 3814 and DIN EN ISO 16484-3 standards are also included.

Some symbol libraries such as SPECIAL.slk are blocked and can't be edited by you. When you try to open such a symbol library, a message will appear and the action is canceled.

Symbol selection (Insert > Symbol) only displays those symbols from the stored symbol libraries and symbol libraries are identified by name (without the path) in projects.

Store symbol libraries (copy to the project)

Symbol libraries are added to the project as soon as they are entered into the project settings, or they are opened or generated in the project.

Precondition:

You have opened a project.

  1. Options > Settings > Projects > 'Project name' > Management > Symbol libraries
  2. In the Settings: Symbol libraries dialog, click [...] in a column below Symbol libraries.
  3. In the Select symbol library dialog select the new symbol library.
  4. Click on [Open].
  5. If you have clicked [...] in the column of an already assigned symbol library, EPLAN checks whether the original symbol library and the newly selected one are both compatible. If this is not the case, the process will be interrupted with a prompt.
    If the two symbol libraries are compatible, you have to confirm the exchange in the Exchange symbol libraries dialog. Click [Yes].
  6. If you have clicked [...] in an empty column, the storage process is automatically started.
  7. Select the Synchronize check box if the symbol library should be managed on a project basis.
  8. If necessary, change the preceding sign (the default is the first letter of the symbol library) so that you can differentiate between the symbol libraries in the list view in the Symbol selection if you select Popup menu > Name with preceding sign.
  9. Proceed this way for all of the further symbol libraries that you would like to store in the project.
  10. Click [OK].
    The new symbol libraries are stored in the project.

Symbol libraries are referenced as follows:

  • All symbol libraries specified under Options > Settings > Projects > 'Project name' > Management > Symbol libraries
  • All symbol libraries opened via Utilities > Master data > Symbol library > Open or generated via Utilities > Master data > Symbol library > New
  • Symbol libraries contained in the Assignment 'Property / value to graphic', Assignment 'Function definition to graphic' and Assignment 'Index to graphic' form properties.

Note:

If you initiate a symbol library update in the Synchronization of master data <Project name> dialog (menu items Utilities > Master data > Synchronize current project), the individual symbols will be checked before the symbol library is replaced. If incompatible data is found the process is interrupted with a prompt.

File off symbol libraries (delete from the project)

Before deleting a symbol library from the settings, and therefore from the project, the library is checked for symbols that are still used in the project. It is possible to delete if the symbol library is not being used.

Precondition:

You have opened a project.

  1. Options > Settings > Projects > 'Project name' > Management > Symbol libraries
  2. In the Settings: Symbol libraries dialog, select the symbol library that you would like to delete from the project.
  3. Click (Delete).
  4. If symbols from the selected symbol library are still being used in the project, click [OK] to confirm the prompt.
