Building New Component Libraries
In addition to the standard component library, where the available FluidSIM-components are located, you may assemble additional libraries.
In contrast to the FluidSIM standard libraries both the arrangement and the contents of such user-defined libraries can defined, by means of operations that add and delete components.
To display available libraries, to create a new one, or to rename an existing one, choose the respective entry from the Library menu.
The first entry in this menu opens the standard library. Below you will find entries for the user defined libraries. When these entries are selected, the applicable library windows will open. At the end of the Library-menu you will find functions for creating a new library (New...), for renaming a user defined library (Rename...) and for deleting a created library (Delete). The menu entries for renaming and for deleting always refer to the active library window.
When clicking on Library- New...a dialog box opens, where a description of the new library can be entered:
The text that has been entered here is shown as a menu entry in the Library menu. The text can be modified anytime, by opening the library and clicking on Library- Rename....
Enter an
appropriate name for new library and drag a few symbols from the
standard library or from a circuit window in the empty window of
the created library. You may also add symbols using the
Insert-menu.
