INTERFACING CONTROL PANEL

 

 Every project is organized into a project folder, with schematics, PCB layouts, and other files all nestled together in one location. This makes it easy to keep things organized. Let’s create your first project and add a brand new schematic with these steps:

1. First, open Autodesk EAGLE, and you’ll be greeted with the Control Panel. This is your home away from home and will contain all of your libraries, projects, scripts, and more.

2. From the Control Panel, select File » New » PROJECT and give your new project folder  a new name.

3. Next, right-click on your project folder and select New » Schematic to add a new schematic sheet to your project.

4. This will open a blank schematic document. Before you do anything else, save your schematic by selecting File » Save As and give it a name. 

5. Now we have our project folder set up with our first schematic. If you go back to your Control Panel you’ll be able to see all of your project files organized together as shown below:
