Dynamically generated lists of all project pages.
Open a typical motor circuit. Select it → Edit > Create Macro Window . The sample project often contains nested macros – sub-circuits saved as .ema files. This is a masterclass in reusing design blocks.
What is the of your design? (PLC I/O, Power Distribution, or Pneumatics?) Eplan P8 Sample Project
Once you understand the mechanics of the sample project, use it to build your company’s master template ( .zw9 or .ept file formats).
A panel builder we worked with used to take 3 days to set up a new project: copy an old one, delete old schematics, rename pages, rewire cross-references... They always broke something. Dynamically generated lists of all project pages
: These appear at the top/bottom of a column and automatically populate the function description for any component placed in that path.
This project isn’t just a random collection of lines; it is a masterclass in standard-compliant design, built according to The sample project often contains nested macros –
Identify the specific component (e.g., -KM1 for a main contactor). 2. Dissecting Page Types
Upon project completion, Eplan generates label files for:
: The project utilizes schematic macros (window and page macros) to show how reusable circuit "blocks" can be dragged and dropped into new designs.
