In this article, you can check how to use Boolean expressions to search the different tables that E3.series provides for managing your project. Expressions serve to facilitate and speed up the search for certain terms and conditions. See the full video article and optimize your processes!
The project starts with the insertion of 4 connectors to a formboard sheet. The chosen connectors are "DT04-3P" and "DT04-2P".
DT04-3P Type Connector Example
When inserting database components, E3.formboard automatically provides a list of available views for each connector and table insertion is automatic.

After adding the connectors, two of them are renamed to further optimize the search example with the logical expressions. The connectors "-X3" and "-X4" are renamed respectively as "-A3" and "-B4".
Device Properties window
For this, the "Device Properties" window is accessed by clicking the right mouse button on the devices in the sheet. Then the "Device Designation" field in the "Device" window is used for name change. Some configuration options in this window are:
