AutoCAD Electrical 2017 is the design software focusing on electrical controls, with options to develop and modify electrical control systems. The extensive libraries of symbols and tools assist in boosting productivity via automation of tasks related to control engineering.
One of the major introductions in AutoCAD Electrical 2017 new features, includes SQL Server support for user’s catalogue data. Now users are able to develop SQL Server instance and also perform migration of default catalogues as well as footprint databases of Microsoft Access directly to SQL Server instance.
Users can select an option of configuring SQL Server instance during installation of AutoCAD Electrical 2017 or decide to set up SQL Server directly from the product itself.
Deployment mode allows to establish connection with SQL Server instance that has been already created within user’s database/system administrator. Autodesk Content Migration Utility has been created specifically for AutoCAD Electrical toolset, and can be used for creation of an SQL Server instance with the same tool.
Standalone mode allows to perform configuration of SQL Server directly from the product itself. AECATALOGCONFIG command can be used for accessing the Configure Database dialog box, which allows user to connect and choose his/her catalogue as well as footprint databases directly on SQL Server instance.
Content Migration Utility has also been introduced in AutoCAD Electrical 2017 version and represents a lightweight migration tool based on GUI, which provides user with ability to develop AutoCAD Electrical toolset catalogue database (including footprint databases and catalogue) on SQL Server instance. This utility can also be used for migration of default catalogue data (in Microsoft Access tables format) to SQL Server instance.
If the project is linked to AutoCAD Inventor assembly in a form of an electromechanical project, then user is provided with an option produce Bill of Material report in a combined form. This option contains Inventor parts and can be accessed whenever a user generates Panel or Schematic Bill of Material report. When using the said option, all electrical parts of your Inventor assembly automatically become part of the report.
In overall AutoCAD Electrical 2017 is a powerful software that you definitely should install and activate in order to bring your electrical control systems design to a whole new level and use software’s latest features in order to deliver engineering projects with precision.
Guys, the 2017 version of Autodesk Inventor Professional is great and I recently completed my purchase. Fast payment, easy download and instant install. Not to mention the subscription is for life, that means it remains main forever. Pretty cool software which will require a minimum of 8GRam in your PC and at least Windows 8. I use is on my 64 bits Windows 10 PC and I have 12 GRAM. Works perfectly.

Incredible deal on Solidworks! Procadis offers the best prices and super-fast delivery. The license was genuine and easy to activate. Will definitely be back for more software needs.

The design changes in Solid Edge are very simple and deliver great results quickly. The interface for users is clean and simple, and you do not have to navigate through hundreds of buttons to locate the feature you require. The program is excellent in importing and exporting different CAD formats.

Building Design Suite Ultimate 2021 is a great solution for engineers, designers and constructors. For example, using this complex, you can easily create 3D presentations and animations. But of course, the most important thing is that you get access to all the latest versions of the programs that are included in this complex. By the way, we saved a decent amount of money by buying programs not one by one, but all together at this complex.
