PollEx UDE
About PollEx UDE
PollEx UDE is Optimized unified management system for electrical-design in the mechanical-design based PLM system.
The UDE Platform provides Parts / Library, Design Data, BOM Management functions for the required product and history management stages. UDE supports the PollEx product interface.
The UDE consists of three main modules: Unified Part Management System (UPMS), Unified Design Management System (UDMS), and Unified BOM Management System (UBMS).
UPMS: Standardization and management module for library and part catalog information used for electrical design in the system.
UDMS: Unified management system which manages design data from creation to finish through managing each development process. Automated checking system for suitability of part and consistency between schematic, PCB and BOM.
UBMS: Generating BOM with the part list, which is extracted in design check in process, and supporting edit, report, manage variant and back annotation functions.
UDE System requires separate server installation (JAVA, Apache Tomcat, DB (MS-SQL, ORACLE, and so on)).
This tutorial describes how to use the environment after it has been configured.

UDMS Setting for Automatic Verification
To use automatic verification during the design check-in process, you must set it up in advance.
After you set this up, the verification stage is set in the design project, verification is automatically executed when the design is checked in.
- Go to the folder where PollEx is installed.
-
Using a text editor, open the
PollExService_Environment.ini file and add a
verification working folder to EXPORT_WORK_DIRECTORY.
The folder should be an existing folder. Example: EXPORT_WORK_DIRECTORY=D:\UDE_root\VerificationOutputs
- Save and close the file.
- Log in to UDE and select Management > System Management > Job Folder Management of UDEIF Daemon Service.
-
Click Add and enter the information:
- For Server alias, enter Verification Server.
-
For Daemon file path of verification server, enter the folder path
defined in the PollExService_Environment.ini
file.
Example: D:\UDE_root\VerificationOutputs.

Unified Design Management System
Unified Design Management System (UDMS) is a unified electrical design management system through check in and out function onto server for schematics and PCBs.
By centralized managing the design data, the UDMS can efficiently manage all design data instead of managing by each personnel.
It can prevent from the problems occurred due to the individual data management by each developer.
In UDMS, one PCB design data is managed as one design project.
-
Click UDMS (Design Project).
Figure 45. -
Create Design Project.
Each design project can be categorized by a customer, product group, or product type.
- Click UDMS (Design Project).
-
Click New Design Project and enter the
information of the project such as name, schedule, type, and so on like
below.
Items marked with * are mandatory.Note: As this is a test, attach an arbitrary file for the Development Specification.
- Click Process Setting.
-
Click Import settings to use the default process
setting.
The default design process scheme includes Schematic Design, Schematic Verification, Part List, PCB Design, PCB Verification, CAE, Allowable Error checking, and Sample PCB Order. These processes can be modified depending on the company’s requirements and linked with the corporate system such as PLM or ERP. But in this document, we’ll use the default process.
-
Select the box of Schedule and specify each schedule of the process and
specify the current user as the project leader by clicking

Schematic Check-Out / Check-In.
You need to check-out the design to start schematic design. After finishing the schematic design, you can check-in to store the design and generate needed outputs.
-
Click Schematic Design.
Figure 51. - Click Check-out.
-
Click OK.
The information of the design checked out is displayed. When checking out, the check-in data is downloaded. However, no data is downloaded for the first time since the creation of the design project. You can continue without any files downloaded. While uploading the schematic design data, UDE automatically converts the schematic data made by CAD tool into a PollEx Logic data (SDBB) and generates part list and netlist. The generated data is shown as an icon in the data column. But, for testing, we will use PollEx Logic Data (SDBB) instead of CAD data for check in.
- Select PollEx in the Check-in file type and click Check In.

Unified BOM Management System
Unified BOM Management System (UBMS) is a unified BOM management system which generates BOM data by using the part list created during the design check-In process.
UBMS supports to manage, modify, report the BOM data and to create variant BOM data. Many companies create the BOM data manually which takes lots of time and errors, but these problems can be prevented through the UBMS.
- Select UBMS and select Altair-Demo-04(Demo-04) > MAIN > Add sensor function (2.0).
-
Edit BOM.
To modify the BOM data, you should check-out the data. You can sort the list by reference name or part number. For editing BOM data, you need to check out the BOM data.

By using the unit price calculation menu, you can estimate the total cost of parts and this information can be exported to an excel as well.
-
Click Unit price calculation.
Figure 99.You can see the unit prices and total price.
Part unit price is calculated based on the estimated price of the part entered in the part information. In this design the price is not accurate because some parts don’t have a unit price information. But if an ERP system is linked with the UPMS, the price data becomes more accurate.
- Click Export excel file and open the exported excel.
