Most cadett ELSA products require either an AutoCAD or an embedded Solo eXs CAD Engine. The only cadett ELSA product that does not have that requirement is the cadett ELSA View.

 

The table below describes the situation.

If you are using a cadett ELSA product that requires an AutoCAD or AutoCAD Electrical, you are recommended to install the needed AutoCAD on your workstations first, before you install the cadett ELSA workstations. The detailed procedure for installation of AutoCAD is described in the documentation provided by Autodesk.

 

If you are using a cadett ELSA Solo product with embedded AutoCAD OEM, the installation of the Solo eXs is part of the cadett ELSA installation procedure. That particular part of the installation procedure is however described in the Solo eXs topic below.

 

If you are using a server for thin clients, AutoCAD or Solo eXs is installed on the workstation server(s), not on the physical workstations. The same recommendations for the installation is however valid.

 

Please refer to the sub-topic listed below that is relevant in your particular case.
