When opening a library item from the workspace menu,  the following interface will appear (as an example, the antenna interface is shown in the figure below).

Figure 280: Example of the antenna interface library

 

All the library elements follow the same command feature . They are available for you to allow: 

  • Creating a new antenna, click on 
  • Deleting an existing antenna, select it in the list and click on 
  • Duplicating an existing antenna, select it in the list and click on . Reference of the new antenna is derived from the reference of the selected one by incrementing the integer suffix of that reference, if any, or adding character '1' to the end of the original name.
  • Reloading the pre-defined libraries (it will delete any entries that you may have made), click  ;
  • Getting on-line help by clicking on  


When adding a new elements, enter the name (unique identifier), description of the elements as well as their technical parameters. 

Note: Tooltips are available on the buttons to remember their meaning 

Once a broad library of various elements are populated, it might be useful to exchange it with other team members working on studies involving similar wireless systems. 

To share the created library, an export file may be created by using command Export Library in menu section File. When selecting this menu option, you will be offered a choice of defining the file name and the entire current library and a library copy will be unloaded to that file.

The SEAMCAT library exchange files are saved using XML format with a unique file extension .sli (for Seamcat Library). Such library export file may then be distributed within a group of users and may be uploaded by any user via the command Import Library on the File menu.

In case of collision of an imported and an existing library element that have the same name (e.g, there will always be a collision between the DEFAULT library elements saved in an exchange file and those existing in target SEAMCAT copy), a choice will be given to either to overwrite the existing elements or to import new library items after renaming them.
