4.6.2.2 SERVICES Menu
The SERVICES menu contains the following menu items:
- New filter
This menu item is used to define a new filter.
● Load CAD file (see section 4.6.2).
● Select the SERVICES --> New filter menu item.
The "PCB filter dialog" window opens (see
Fig. 4.6.4).
CAD Import is now in the Filter editing mode.
The further procedure to be followed is described in
section 4.6.3.
● Click on the filter selection button in the "PCB filter dialog" window.
The FSB containing the contents of the "Master data:CAD-Bibliothek:Filter" directory opens.
● Enter the name of the new filter "xx.fla" and confirm with OK (or RETURN).
The FSB closes and the name entered is transferred to the "Filter" field.
● Define the desired filter-specific data (see section 4.6.3.1) and allocate the CAD data to the posi-
tion fields (see
section 4.6.3.2).
● Click on OK for the filter data to be accepted (saved). The filter dialog window closes.
- Modify filter
This menu item is used to change the data of an existing filter.

● Select the SERVICES --> Modify filter menu item.
The "PCB filter dialog" window opens containing the filter selected from the main window. CAD
Import is now in the Filter editing mode.
● Perform the required changes.
● Click on OK for the modified filter data to be accepted (saved).
A dialog box containing a verification query as to whether the "xx.fla" file is to be overwritten is dis-
played.

- CAD data
This menu item is used to return to the display of the CAD data if the graphical display of the deter-
mined PCB structure is active (see Fig. 4.6.2).
● Select the SERVICES --> CAD data menu item.
The display is switched back to the CAD data display (see
Fig. 4.6.1).
- Graphical data
Following the conversion, it is possible to display the determined PCB structure graphically.
To obtain a clearer display of the PCB, various display options for displaying the graphical elements
can be selected from the setting area. It is possible, for example, to display only placement positions
in the vie area if only these are required. The procedure to be followed is identical to the procedure in
the PCB Editor (graphic mode) and is described in detail in
chapt. 8, section 8.1.3.4.
● Select the SERVICES --> Graphical data menu item.
The main window of CAD Import is switched to the graphical display mode (see
Fig. 4.6.2).
