Import Export Component Definitions

This page describes how to Import component definitions from the online catalog.

Select the Import Component Definitions option from the import and export section. This can also be done by using the local catalog tab from the sidebar.

It is recommended to first import definitions of all the components from the online catalog required for building your network.

In the import and export of component definitions window, select the category and or manufacturer and search from the list of components from the online catalog or search with a specific name if the desired component name is known (1).

Select the required components (2) and add the component definitions to your local catalog by clicking Import. Repeat this process, until all needed component definitions are imported into your local catalog.

Importing a component definition will automatically also import any port types, slot types, geometries etc. used in this definition.

You can now find all your imported component definitions in the local catalog (Alt + C).

Right click on a component to access the action to show available modules in the local catalog for the selected component from the context menu.

If a component is not yet available in the online catalog, you can request it from our support.

You can also export component definitions that you have created, from the export tab in a similar way.

After your local catalog is populated with your desired components, you can immediately place these components in your infrastructure and begin your network construction.
