EPLAN Pro Panel allows the exchange of enclosure data in the form an AML file with the Rittal Configuration System. To this purpose an interface is available in the Backstage view for the export and import of data.
Notes:
- Please note that initially only data exchange from Rittal enclosures to the housing series AX and KX is possible.
- Always use up-to-date and unchanged Rittal parts data for data exchange with the Rittal Configuration System. This applies in particular for 3D macros from the EPLAN Data Portal. Only this way an error-free and successful data exchange is ensured.
Exporting enclosure data
Precondition:
- You have opened a project.
- The project contains at least one layout space with a 3D mounting layout.
- Select the project in the page navigator.
- Select the following commands: File > Export > Command group Manufacturing data > Manufacturing data > Command group Rittal Configuration System > Rittal Configuration System.
- You enter a name under which the export file is saved in the dialog Export: Rittal Configuration System in the AutomationML file field. Or select the name interactively via

A query is displayed when you select an existing file. There decide whether you want to overwrite the file. - Click [OK].The data are written to the export file.
Importing enclosure data
Precondition:
You have opened a project from which you have previously exported enclosure data to the Rittal Configuration System.
- Select the project in the page navigator.
- Select the following commands: File > Import > Command group Manufacturing data > Manufacturing data > Command group Rittal Configuration System > Rittal Configuration System.
- Select the desired file with enclosure data (*.aml) for the import in the dialog Import: Rittal Configuration System.

Note:
When you import the enclosure data into another project for which you have previously not exported an AML file to the Rittal Configuration System, new layout spaces are generated in this project.
