IPC-D-356A Export

[eatelier]

Hi

I am exporting my netlist from Ultiboard 10.1 PowerPro, in the IPC-D-356A format, for use in a Polar Instruments GRS500 flying probe tester. In Ultiboard, there is no export setting dialog. From the generated file, I see that the generated coordinates are in millimeters/degrees. However, the tester requires a file with coordinates in inches. Question: Is there a way to export an IPC356 file from Ultiboard with inches? If not, does anybody know of a conversion program/script to convert an existing IPC356 file from metric to imperial units?. Thanky

Hi,

as you have recognized there are unfortunately no export settings for the IPC-D-356A format.

For a script you should take a look at the format
