- Gives users a simple “Find, View, Print” screen.
Users just enter in the Drawing Number they are looking
for and then click on the Acrobat symbol to view the PDF.
- PDF Viewing is much faster then most other viewers that
deal with the native file viewing. Proven to be very efficient
when viewing over WAN’s to remote facilities.
- Ability to store only the Last Released file. No confusion
of which version should be used. The system can also easily
be configured to store History revisions if appropriate
to your situation.
- Fast wild card searching is available on more than just
the file name. Fields such as description, ECN or Work Order
numbers can easily be added.
- Once files are found, they have the ability to “Batch
Print” them to pre-configured printers or print one
by one to their local printer. This can save users the time
to open each file separately and then print 1 by 1.
- Additional fields of data can be tracked to help users
know they have the correct file such as Revision, Description
and Published Date.
Other Key
Features:
- Uses native file Formats if required – Many Viewers
of native files are not 100% accurate so if required, we
can use Full SolidWorks or AutoCAD to do the Printing and
PDF creation.
- Web based so low IT involvement required. Can be run
on any PC with web browser. No local software needs to be
installed.
- All files stay on the server locked behind a Virtual
Web directory
- Automatic publishing
- Based on triggers from PDM\Document management systems
- Directory Searching\Polling
- Drag and drop functionality to Publishing application
- Complete logging of information – What was published
by who and when
- Ability to Automate work order printing by giving Connexus
a list of the drawing you need and then it will add a time,
date, and comment stamp to each print.
With the advancement
of many of our Engineering tools, the complexity of achieving
this task becomes much greater. Typically, just managing a
directory of files will no longer meat the requirements of
the tools and requires much manual user intervention.
