The following procedures describe how to add a system layer to the technology in the Technology Library Editor dialog or Technology Editor dialog.
Adding a System Layer (Entire Board)
- In the Technology Editor dialog, click the Layer Configuration tab to display the Layer Configuration table.
- Click a root item (technology name) in the table, and then click Add Non-Circular Hole Layers on the assist menu. Alternatively, click Add. The System Layer (Entire Board) dialog is displayed.
Settings
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Number of non-circular hole layers | This layer is assigned to enter non-circular holes. Enter a positive value for the number of layers to be created. |
Adding a System Layer (Conductor/Outermost Layer)
- Click the Layer Configuration tab to display the Layer Configuration table.
- Click the outermost conductor layer in the table, and then click Configure System Layer on the assist menu. Alternatively, click ConfigureSystem. The System Layer (Conductor Layer X) dialog is displayed.
Settings
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Number of symbol mark layers | Enter a positive value for the number of symbol mark layers to be created. |
| Number of solder resist layers | Enter a positive value for the number of solder resist layers to be created. |
| Number of metal mask layers | Enter a positive value for the number of metal mask layers to be created. |
| Height limit area | This layer is assigned to enter height limit areas. To create the layer, select the Use box. |
Note
There is no command to delete a system layer. However, you can effectively delete a system layer by changing the quantity of layers such as symbol mark, solder resist or metal mask.
