Switch Variant

From Generation result table, you can view the variant list by selecting the variant from the SWITCH VARIANT selection box.

For variant with an NP status the components name in the reference list is highlighted “Red”.

For variant with Part Name changed for components the component name in the reference list is highlighted “Blue”.


Figure 1.

Export MS Excel: Can export the coordinate data for all Variants to Excel file.

Export: Mount data of the mounter format selected on the Direct Generation Setting screens for all Variants can be exported.

User Defined Export: Exports mount coordinate data for all Variants in user defined format.

For all the Export features an Export generation Result dialog box is displayed to select variants to export.
