Installation Notes
- Run the installer as administrator and keep the default path unless your company standard requires otherwise.
- After installation, re-enable antivirus protection and add the program folder to the allowed list if your policy requires it.
- Reboot the PC once after installation completes — this finalizes driver and service registration.
- If a controller or robot connection will be used, allow the software through the Windows firewall when prompted.
- Temporarily disable antivirus and Windows Defender real-time protection — installers that copy licensed components are frequently false-flagged.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I import from other ECAD tools?
Yes, common exchange formats are supported; expect some manual cleanup of symbols and device data on first import.
How are revisions handled?
Revision control tracks changes per page and device, so updates stay traceable.
Is multi-user editing possible?
Projects can split into page-based work for parallel editing; coordinate access with your team.
Does it generate manufacturing documents?
BOM, cable lists, terminal plans and panel layouts are generated directly from the schematics.

Tips from Real Projects
On a skid-build project, ETAP 22.5 page macros let the electrical team keep pace with mechanical changes arriving weekly. The habits that carried it: device data pulled from one parts database, revision discipline enforced per page, and wire numbers generated — never typed. Lock macro versions per project — a mid-build library update rippling through released pages is a weekend nobody gets back.
