.REP - Teardrop Report file. Do version / consider versioning. Obvious files:.PcbDoc,.PrjPcb,.SchDoc,.OutJob,.PrjPcbVariants.DsnWrk - I often find, that I open several unrelated PCB projects while working through the day, which results in changes to the workspace file. Since that is not relevant for version control, I tend to leave it out. Using the demo version of Altium Designer (Protel DXP) you can read in.PCB files and later export them as 'PCB FILE 6 VERSION 2.80'. The Protel converter in TARGET 3001! Can convert those files. This is a screenshot of the Protel 'Save As'-dialog (using a German Windows). Download and install an application that can open a PCB file such as Express PCB.

Can I use a universal file viewer?

Altium Viewer Online

A universal file viewer is the way to go when you have PCB files that can’t be opened by any other program. Install a universal file viewer like File Magic (Download) and see if it will open your PCB file. Remember that if your file is not compatible, the universal file viewer will only open it in binary format.

Back to Convert Protel to TARGET 3001!

How



Using the Protel 98/99/SE export we always got in the first line one of the following options:

PCB FILE 6 VERSION 2.80

PCB FILE 6 VERSION 2.60

PCB FILE 6 VERSION 2.40


Please check which PROTEL version you currently are using and also check it's export opportunities. Using the demo version of Altium Designer (Protel DXP) you can read in *.PCB files and later export them as 'PCB FILE 6 VERSION 2.80'. The Protel converter in TARGET 3001! can convert those files.

This is a screenshot of the Protel 'Save As'-dialog (using a German Windows):




The conversion process is described as follows:

Highlight in Protel Design Explorer the file you wish to convert. In this example the file: 'Z80 Processor Board.pcb'.

In menu 'File' choose 'Export'...||

In the following dialog choose 'File Type' (extension) 'Protel PCB 2.8 ASCII File (*.PCB)' and enter an appropriate name for the ASCII file, wich is now created. In our example we just added the letters TXT for the extension after conversion still is *.PCB.

After 'Save' is pressed please find the converted file in the defined directory.

Now import this file to TARGET 3001! How Do You Open Pcb File

Because we just converted a schematic file, no layout can be there. <p>Please make a project Reorganisation. See TARGET menu 'Actions / Reorganisation' <p>Currently free text elements unfortunately get lost. The data integration between schematic and PCB layout can be realized in TARGET 3001! menu 'Input-/Output Formats/Concatenate a schematic and a pcb'...
