DIALux evo compatibility

Create professional lighting plans for your project in DIALux evo

• Import lighting plans from DIALux evo
• Select storeys and map luminaire types
• Update existing lighting layouts

DIALux evo is a comprehensive planning tool for lighting design. Lighting plans from DIALux evo can be imported directly into MagiCAD in IFC format.

After opening the imported IFC file, MagiCAD users need to select which storeys to add from the DIALux evo design and then define 2D symbols for the created luminaires or map the luminaire types to corresponding ones in MagiCAD. After the storey selection and mapping, MagiCAD places the luminaires into the project according to elevation information from DIALUX evo. The correct storeys for the luminaires in MagiCAD are automatically selected based on storey elevations and luminaires are automatically mapped to luminaire types in MagiCAD when their manufacturer names and article numbers match.

You can also simply update an existing luminaire layout according to the data from DIALux evo, instead of creating an entirely new design each time. This makes it easy to edit the lighting design at later project stages.
