You can import a list of Phoenix Contact article numbers. If an article number is known to cxE, the corresponding article appears in the UNPLACED ELEMENTS window and you can use it in your project as usual.

Any number (line in the file) that cxE does not recognize is ignored during import.
Import from PROJECT complete planning/CLIP project planningYou can import your existing planning projects in cxE just by opening the klp project file. The project is then "upgraded" for use in cxE.

In some cases, not all elements of the old project can be imported correctly into cxE. After each import, an upgrade log informs you about the import result for each element.
