Importing Specctra SES files into Eagle Cad

e14 Contributor

Short Story:

 

I'm trying import specctra SES formated files into eaglecad, I'm told there is a ulp for that. But I'm having no luck finding it.

 

Long Story:

 

I'm trying to use TopoRs router with eaglecad. So I can export eaglecad .brd files to TopoR by first converting it to dsn files using a ulp i found here. http://www.freerouting.net/download/brd_to_dsn.ulp

 

After TopoR is done routing it can only export files in SES , DXF formats. Do u guys know of any ulps or ways to import these files into eagecad.

    Hi Kvik,

     

    You can import dxf files into EAGLE using dxf2scr. You can find it on the website www.cadsoftusa.com-> Downloads->Miscellaneous.

    Thnx for the reply Jorge

     

    Ok so dxf2scr is not working for me. I tried running the SCR it generates in a empty brd files.. and nothing happens. I looked at the dxf file that topor generates with a third part dxf viewer and it looks fine.  The description for dxf2scr says it only does "board outlines from AutoCAD to Eagle" so it may not import the routing anyway.
    I tried dxf2scr-1 , its look like its just a clone with a gui , and it doesn't work too.
    the DXF importer from EagleCad power tools, seems to be the only one that kinda works. It presemnts me a list of layers in the dxf and how they should be transfered to eaglecad like top to layer 1 , bottom to layer 16. But when i run it it only seems to translate the pads and not the traces and routing. Could be because I'm running it in demo mode.
