Welcome to Schematic Dataset Editor Help

This online help has been designed to assist you in your schematic dataset parameterization. It will help you understand more about how to configure your schematic dataset. It concerns the configuration of all primary components managed by your Schematics applications.

Caution:

In 10.0, Schematics has been completely rebuilt on new foundations with a new architecture of parts of the Schematics API and the configuration tool. These changes have major impacts on pre-10 schematic datasets. To be able to use the full Schematics functions on a schematic dataset previous to version 10, you must migrate this schematic dataset. It is recommended that you carefully read the topics in the Migrating from a pre-10 Schematics version help book before migrating any schematic dataset previous to version 10.
