1 Introduction
The goal of this document is to provide the consultants who will be setting up SIPLACE EDM systems at
the customers with a guide detailing the technical aspects involved in such an installation.

2 System components
2.1 Overview
The Engineering Data Manager comprises two major units: the EDM Master Server and the EDM Line
Server. Figure 1shows the internal structure of the application components and the communication
between the individual system components.
1Structure of the EDM system
The following sections discuss the system components, their function and their communication channels in
more detail.

2.2 EDM Master Server
The EDM Master Service is the server component of EDM. It replies to queries from EDM line services and
distributes the data in the central SIPLACE Pro database among the lines. In return, it accepts change
notifications and collects them in the Clearing Pool database.
The EDM master service is implemented as a Windows service that starts automatically when the system
is started.
2.3 EDM Client
The EDM Client enables user interaction on the line. It implements the customer workflow for the
distribution of data from a central database. The workflow can be customized to match customer needs
(see 5.2.4). The workflow to be performed here is to be obtained from the customer, discussed with the
customer, and customized for technical or efficiency reasons if necessary before installing the EDM
system.
2.4 EDM Clearing Pool
The EDM Clearing Pool is the tool used by the data preparation engineer to examine the change
notifications from each of the lines in terms of their relevance and, if necessary, integrate them into the
SIPLACE Pro master database. With the functionality already available in SIPLACE Pro, individual objects
of a certain type (components, component shapes, fiducial types, boards and placement lists) can be
compared attribute-by-attribute, and changes can be applied at this low level. The Clearing Pool can be
installed independently of the EDM master service on a separate workstation computer.
2.5 EDM Data Transfer Manager
The data preparation engineer controls the push mode functions using the EDM Data Transfer GUI (3.3).
Here, the objects to be sent are selected and sent to the relevant lines, a status display shows the
progress of the data transferred in this way, informs the user that the push operation was successful and
warns of any problems.
The EDM Data Transfer Manager is always installed in combination with the Clearing Pool.
2.6 EDM notifications
The EDM Service converts the change notifications received from the lines into a human-readable form
and distributes these to the appropriate locations. The type of messages sent and the recipients of the
messages can be configured. This will be explained in more detail later on (see 5.4, EDM Configuration
and 5.5 Filter configuration).
