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 three major units: the EDM Configuration Manager,
EDM Master Server and the EDM Client. The illustrations below show a basic deployment scenario
and a typical deployment scenario for the EDM and the communication paths between the
individual system components.

2.2 EDM Configuration Manager
The EDM Configuration Manager is the central location for configuring the EDM system. There, you
will find the functionality to define and change configuration sets to support multiple EDM
scenarios. A configuration set consists of references to all configuration items, including
• Filter rule settings
• Settings for email notification on incoming notifications
• Master server location
Based on certain rules, the Configuration Manager assigns exactly one configuration set to each
EDM computer, defining its behavior.
The configuration options and the user interface are described in section 5.3.
2.3 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.
2.4 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 section 6.4, Workflow Configuration).
2.5 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 EDM Clearing Pool can be installed on a separate workstation computer independently
of the EDM master service.
2.6 EDM Data Transfer Manager
The data preparation engineer controls the push mode functions using the EDM Data Transfer GUI
(see section 3.2 Push mode). 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 usually is installed in combination with the EDM Clearing Pool,
but may also be setup on another computer that provides network access to the EDM Master and
all EDM Lines.
