Uploading created equipment to the Community Sever allows all WireCAD users to access, download and modify equipment for their drawings. This prevents having to store a massive equipment list locally and prevents having to create a new piece of equipment when it is not in your local database.



Before You Start

Please note when you first install WireCAD, you are asked if you would like to "Automatically Contribute My Work", "Only After I Check the Approved Box for Each Record" or "No Thanks". Depending on your selection, WireCAD will automatically upload your equipment or wait for you to approve it. If you have selected "Automatically Contribute My Work" you are done and no further action is required.


Uploading Equipment If You Have Selected "Only After I Check The Approved Box For Each Record"

Step Description
From your Equipment Library, find the equipment you have created. You can search by any criteria you like or just browse down through the equipment list.
Equipment List
After you have found your equipment, highlight it and select the [Detail] tab. You should now see the detail page with all the information you entered when you created this piece of equipment.
Equipment Detail Page
About 3/4 of the way down you will see a field labled Approved and a Check Box associated with it. Click the box . WireCAD will now automatically upload this piece of equipment next time it connects to the server.
