All elements are stored in a human-readable XML format, making it possible to create or modify custom Siemens symbols using the built-in Element Editor.
Unlike commercial software, QET does not auto-install a massive vendor library. The community maintains it. To access the , follow these protocols:
Steps proposed: 1. Obtain necessary documentation and component files from Siemens. 2. Map Siemens components to Qelectrotech. 3. Implement integration code. 4. Perform testing. 5. Document the feature. i--- Qelectrotech Siemens Library -
The I-Qelectrotech Siemens Library boasts an impressive array of features that make it an indispensable tool for electrical designers. Some of the key features include:
The library is part of the broader , which contains over 8,000 symbols. Siemens-specific elements typically found in this library include:
PLC CPUs, digital input/output modules, and analog modules. SIMATIC HMI: Basic and Comfort panels. SINAMICS Drives: Frequency converters. This content is structured to be useful for
: Symbols often include detailed cabling information, including power supply connections and communication ports like MPI or Profibus. PLC Integration : The library provides complex symbols for SIMATIC S7
A particularly useful feature for professionals dealing with Siemens elements is the "Advanced Replace" function. Imagine you have a project with a hundred Siemens components, and your client suddenly requests a change to equivalents. The Advanced Replace feature allows you to automatically replace the property values.
