Import Tool: easy publication of standardized data

The Import Tool for the Eplan Data Portal makes it easier for manufacturers to publish device data in line with the Data Standard. For instance, you can use it to import the complete ECLASS Advanced archives (in Version 9.0 and above) and generate high-quality Eplan data sets that comply with the Data Standard.

If manual adjustments prove necessary, the Import Tool guides you through to the standardized data set step by step, up to “ready to publish.” The EDZ import format is also supported. Furthermore, the Import Tool is successively being expanded to include new format types.
