Hidden Message Receiver Window

Elecdes runs a hidden window that receives messages from other modules of EDS to initiate functions inside an Elecdes drawing session. This function is running at all times listening for a directive to perform a function.

You can alternatively hide and show the window by typing the command "CMW" on the command line of the Elecdes drawing session. The window has buttons to initiate the functions that it can be called to perform.

The functions are:

  • Generate a terminal strip with the Wiring Diagram Generator.

  • Execute the cross reference navigate function.

  • Open a drawing.

  • Create a new drawing.

  • Toggle the mode of the AutoCAD startup dialog.

The data is provided for the functions via settings made in the EDS initialisation file: EL32.INI

There is no requirement for you to use this window manually.
