CADSTAR Library Migration

The CADSTAR Library Migration process will translate the CADSTAR Part libraries, the CADSTAR PCB Components, the CADSTAR Schematic Symbols and the CADSTAR Documentation Symbols to a data format that is compatible with eCADSTAR Library Editor, eCADSTAR Schematic Editor and eCADSTAR PCB Editor. The process also considers the migration of the CADSTAR Schematic and PCB design templates, as part of the development of the eCADSTAR Master Library.

To create an eCADSTAR Master Library from CADSTAR data, you must obtain data from different areas of CADSTAR. The eCADSTAR Master Library will require data from the CADSTAR Part Libraries, the Component Libraries, the Schematic Libraries, the Documentation Symbol Libraries and the CADSTAR Template Designs. The "Preparing the CADSTAR Library Data for Migration" section of this migration guide will assist you in preparing the CADSTAR library and template data for translation by the eCADSTAR migration tool.

 

Note
3D model data that is used in CADSTAR is not included in the migration process from CADSTAR to eCADSTAR.
