E3.series provides a tool to export components and symbols from one database and import them into another database of the same version.

I am going to tell you about a feature in E3.series that allows you to rename all the components in your project – no matter how many pages you have – at one time. The video below will show you how easy it is to use this feature to save time.

In this video, we’ll walk through the process of creating an attribute list of values for a specific attribute. This makes it extremely easy to select a value from a pulldown instead of wondering if you have the correct syntax for a given value. Using the list feature ensures a constant and correct value entry.

In Zuken’s E3.series, wire groups can be made up of a number of wires with identical characteristics but different part numbers. One group may contain all the available types of one specific manufacturer or one specific color. The video explains the creation of a wire group that has one specific color for all gauges.

In E3.series, levels are used to make certain things – such as symbols, symbol graphics, symbol text, empty text, graphics, text, and connetions – within your project visible or invisible with the click of a button. The video below will show you how to control these levels within your E3.series project.

To make the process of locating components in your E3.series library easier and quicker, you can set up search fields in the library database window, where field entries quickly narrow to show available components for selection.

In order to use components more effectively in your E3.series project, you can associate a model to that component. You can describe the logical characteristics of your component using Component Wizard. However, it’s best create a model of that component to describe its physical characteristics.
