| | Why it matters | |-----------|---------------------| | Device Tagging (DT) | Unique identifiers ensure cross-references work and BOM is accurate. | | Macro creation | Saves 50–80% of time on repeating circuits (e.g., motor starters). | | Parts database discipline | Directly drives BOM, costing, and 3D models in Pro Panel. | | Variant management | Allows one base project with options (e.g., with/without bypass). | | Project check (messages) | Catches errors before manufacturing. |
Add a PLC (e.g., 6ES7 214-1AG40-0XB0) with digital I/O, wire it to sensors and contactors. eplan training
