Adaptation of cadett ELSA.

Customize cadett ELSA

Save time and money with cadett ELSA!

cadett ELSA has many advantages. Among the most prominent is an extremely good adaptability. There is no other product on the market that beats cadett ELSA in that respect!

Configuring and programming cadett ELSA to customize the software for your own needs and thus save even more time and money is therefore a golden opportunity waiting to be seized.

The system is completely open. Therefore, it is possible to perform this type of customization yourself, but that of course requires knowledge and experience, and it obviously has its cost to obtain this. A faster and thus often cheaper and more profitable way is therefore to use the skilled consultants at cadett. They create the customization you need to become more efficient in your work, at a fixed price or on an ongoing basis - completely according to your wishes.

Here, we give a few examples of such customizations. Of course, you know best what your needs are, but you can hopefully get some inspiration from the suggestions here!

Here, we give a few examples of such customizations. Of course, you know best what your needs are, but you can hopefully get some inspiration from the suggestions here!

Drawing frame according to your own wishes

We create a complete new drawing frame including mask, mask file and other required technicalities. We can also create a script sequence so that you can automatically change the drawing frame in existing documentation, while retaining the texts in the title fields.

Reports according to your own requirements

We produce complete report definitions to your specification. They can use your own drawing frame and have the columns and column headings you want.

You may wish to exclude some of the information contained in the standard reports. You may find that there is missing information that you want to add.

Based on the information available in the cadett ELSA databases, we produce the report definitions you require.

User defined information in drawing sheets and reports

Are you missing any attributes in the cadett ELSA symbols? Would you like to include information in the reports that is not available in the standard product?

We configure the system for you. Then you can use all the attributes you need. The information from them can be included in your reports.

Link to Excel

Are you used to working with Excel? Would you appreciate to easily extract information from cadett ELSA to Excel at the touch of a button? Would it be beneficial to be able to edit the information there and then send it back to cadett ELSA to update the drawing sheets?

We create the macros in Excel needed to achieve this and design them according to your wishes.

Customized PDF generation

cadett ELSA's QuickPDF feature instantly creates searchable PDFs with bookmarks and hyperlinks. If you need a customized variant, perhaps with different layer settings, splitting into multiple PDFs, special file names, or any other variant, we will help you with the necessary configuration.

The blue texts in the figure below are clickable hyperlinks. If you want to add watermarks with, for example, status information, this is also easy to accomplish.

Macros

Do you often do the same operations over and over again? Maybe you create the same reports for each project? Maybe you create PDF files with the same settings every time? Maybe you do the same operations in the drawing archive every time? Maybe you would like to have ready-made, multi-sheet circuits that you can easily insert wherever you want?

We will help you create the macros needed to allow you to perform extensive operations at the touch of a button, instead of having to repeat the same commands over and over again.

Drawing utilities

Are you missing any commands in the drawing environment? Would you like to add some commands to facilitate tasks that are common for you?

Our drawing environment programmers create the commands you want!

Link to PDM system

Do you need to connect cadett ELSA with your PDM system? Perhaps you want an automatic transfer of article information from the PDM system to cadett ELSA for use in electrical design projects? Maybe you want to be able to send the finished device lists directly to the MPS system?

We provide the necessary links to automate the transfers so that you can take full advantage of both cadett ELSA and the PDM system!

Archive and document management system integrations

Are you working with a general document management system? Would you like to integrate cadett ELSA into that system? Does it seem difficult to solve the issue of revisions and multi-page circuit diagram documents?

In cadett ELSA, we have already solved these problems. A turnkey connection to Autodesk Vault is included on delivery. Connections to all other document management systems on the market are prepared.

We will help you set up the connections you need.

PLC

Do you start from I/O lists when creating your documentation? Would you like to automatically generate the body of your circuit diagrams with I/O's, terminals and circuits from these I/O lists?

We create the macros that do the job!

Customized option handling

The option handler in cadett ELSA allows you to define any number of multi-sheet options that are either active or not. This provides great opportunities for efficiency gains right from the start.

Do you want to build on this, perhaps with a framework and the possibility of external control, for example with a configurator? We will help you set up a solution that is optimized for your specific needs.

Customized external connection diagrams

Intelligent external connection diagrams are automatically created in cadett ELSA. Would you like to build on this functionality, perhaps with different symbols, or with other additional features?

We help you configure the functionality to get the results you want.

Automation solutions

Does it sound like a dream to be able to automatically generate complete electrical design documentation from a general framework? cadett ELSA provides the basic technology required. The open, well-documented and complete application programming interface (API) forms the backbone of solutions to fully or partially automate the production of the documentation. The possibilities here are staggering!

Other wishes

Above, we have given some examples of customizations that we can help you with. The examples come from typical assignments that we frequently undertake on behalf of our clients.

Maybe you have some completely different ideas? Do not hesitate to contact us for an open discussion. We have the skills and resources to make your work more effective!
