MagiCAD Schematics

Powerful tool for changing property value for multiple symbols at once.

MagiCAD Schematics utilises AutoCAD tool palettes which enable symbols and device groups to be dragged and dropped to the drawing.

Devices are not just symbols but can contain user-defined data. Properties can be fully customised according to customer needs.

Drawing lines and adding symbols to the drawing is easy and straightforward with MagiCAD Schematics. When a symbol is added, all the necessary connections are established automatically. Adding symbols is easy: you can just drag and drop them from the tool palette to the drawing. The necessary information can be defined for each symbol while adding the symbols or afterwards. The symbol also inherits information from the duct, pipe or cable to which it is connected. Symbols and lines can be combined as pre-defined assemblies and stored to the dataset for later use. This makes for example adding heating coils with pipe connections very convenient.

No need to create regularly used configurations over and over again.

Diagram settings (line types, symbols, properties, report templates etc.) can be stored to external file (dataset) to ensure uniform output of diagrams.

Lines, symbols and pre-defined objects, including pipes, cables, valves, ducts, lights, etc., contain data.

Modifying stored data afterwards is straightforward: it is easy to add and remove properties and you can also change the property values of multiple symbols at once using the Device Schedule tool.

Possibility to create user-defined symbols and to use device properties in symbol presentation.

MagiCAD Schematics makes it easy and fast to standardise and start new projects using dataset templates, which can be localised for each market area, company or project. The dataset includes all the necessary settings to ensure uniform format for the schematics in a project, including symbols, data content to be stored, line settings, etc.

MagiCAD Schematics offers a built-in frame handling system which can be customised for each company or project. It is easy to modify title blocks and add project information. When it is time to plot the schematic drawings, all the frames can be plotted automatically into a single PDF file, saving time when producing paper drawings.

Adding dimension texts. Using properties defined for the symbol in dim.text formats.

Reports can be attached to the diagram. Reports attached to the diagram is synchronised with symbols and data is updated automatically.

MagiCAD Schematics comes with a tool for producing reports, e.g. device schedules, based on the content in the schematic drawing. Report settings can be easily configured by the user and stored as a report template to the dataset. One of the most powerful report-related features is the possibility to attach the report directly into the schematic drawing with a two-way link automatically established between the report and the symbol. This removes the need to manually make separate updates to the schematic drawings and the device schedule, as both stay up-to-date automatically when information changes in one of them.

Possibility to create user-defined symbols from AutoCAD objects.
