2. Creating the user database
Registering components (or marks) in the user database will prove convenient if they are not included
in the database or they are used very frequently.
The user database should be registered in the user area of the database. The user database area can be
from Nos. 1 to 499 for the component database and from Nos. 1 to 149 for the mark database. The
registered data in this area will be retained even if the software version is upgraded.

3. Creating XML library
This section describes the features of XML data and some cautions for handling XML data. Major
differences between XML PCB data and VIOS PCB data are that XML data can be utilized as a library
and also uses the only one file format. This allows collective management and operation of PCB data
without limitation on the number of data items, and also permits registration of differences between
machines.
3.1 Setting the library path
The following is an example for setting the library in the machine or on a PC connected
on a LAN.
1
Open the "Setting" window.
Press the [Software Setting] button on the Setup window to open the "Setting"
window.
2
Press the [Library] button to open the library.
