WSView is a free electrical CAD viewer for WSCAD, the low cost electrical CAD software distributed in the UK by Leonardo Computer Systems.
WSView is a free electrical CAD viewer for WSCAD, the low cost electrical CAD software distributed in the UK by Leonardo Computer Systems.
WSView Version 4.4 views electrical CAD drawings from any version of WSCAD.
The viewer can also serve as a print utility to make hardcopy, and the user will not have to own WSCAD software.
The user can zoom to an area to enlarge a section of the drawing, and it is easy to browse though drawings simply by using the page up/page down keys.
Users of WSCAD can put WSView on their internal network, so that everyone in the business can view and print out electrical schematics.
WSView may be distributed to customers who can then read electrical drawings even though they have no access to WSCAD.
WSView can even be installed on PCs incorporated in electrical control panels.
WSView will not view AutoCAD files, it is an electrical CAD viewer, and only reads files in the universal WSCAD format.
WSCAD is low cost electrical CAD software for electrical schematics in control panel design and plant and factory electrics.
WSCAD is a CAD productivity tool that will speed up, and improve the quality of electrical and other schematics.
WSCAD is produced in 11 languages and distributed all over the world.
The user base comprises more than 30,000 companies.
It automates the production of electrical drawings, by automatically numbering and cross referencing electrical circuit components, terminals, coils, contacts, wires, PLC's, plugs, sockets and cables.
The software will produce custom listings including bills of materials.
WSCAD includes a sophisticated built in electrical CAD document management system that features revision control and archiving of records.
WSCAD can integrate with existing systems such as MRP, CAE, PDM, CIM and MCS.
The custom report generator can drive MS Access, Excel, Crystal Reports, Lotus Notes etc.
WSCAD contains "managers" that carry out online electrical checks as each new component is added to the CAD diagram.
Electrical CAD symbol libraries covering IEC, DIN, BS, BS3939, and JIC are provided together with a database of electrical components from Siemens, Telemechanique, Allen Bradley, Mitsubishi, Rittal and others.
WSView may be downloaded free of charge from the Leonardo Computer Systems website.
