CYPELUX LEED

Grouping regulatory apps in CYPELUX

As of version 2025.d, the CYPELUX EN, CYPELUX CTE, CYPELUX SCE and CYPELUX LEED applications will be combined in a single version of CYPELUX, consolidating all their features in a single tool.

In previous versions, CYPELUX could already import the regulatory requirements of:

  • EN 12464-1 (Lighting in workplaces).
  • Technical Building Code (CTE).
  • Energy Certification System for Buildings (SCE).

Now, the CYPELUX LEED feature is also integrated in this version. The "LEED 4.0 CAI CREDIT 8.1" check can be selected directly from the "Specific requirements of each zone" settings in the "General parameters" menu.

In addition, in the "Daylight" configuration panel, options have been added to adjust the parameters of the sky model to be used in the simulation, allowing for greater accuracy in natural lighting calculations.

Generating justification documents

With this update, CYPELUX now offers an extended generation of justification reports. In addition to the "Calculation annex" and "Project" documents, the following reports can now be generated:

  • LEED 4.0 CAI CREDIT 8.1 (formerly available in CYPELUX LEED).
  • Material and Construction Specifications.
  • CTE DB-HE 3 (formerly available in CYPELUX CTE).
  • CTE DB-SUA 4 (formerly available in CYPELUX CTE).

Programs discontinued as of version 2025.d

As of version 2025.d, the following apps will be discontinued from CYPE's programs:

  • IFC Uploader
    You can now create new contributions directly from the project page on the BIMserver.center web platform.

  • CYPETEL Systems
    The features of this program are included in CYPETEL.

  • CYPELUX EN / CYPELUX LEED
    The features of these programs are included in CYPELUX.

  • CYPE Lightning
    The features of this program are included in CYPELEC Distribution.

Improved management of DXF and DWG templates

Version 2025.c of the CYPE apps includes the following improvements in the management of DXF and DWG file templates:

  • Reading DXF/DWG files with updated version
    As of version 2025.c, CYPE apps can read DXF/DWG files up to AutoCAD® version 2025.

  • Improved template preview
    Advanced graphic management has been implemented in the template selection and transformation panels to optimise the template drawing preview window and facilitate the movement of the drawing from this panel.

  • Simultaneous transformations on the template
    The application of the following transformations on an imported template has been improved:
    • Selecting the visible area of the template
    • Changing the coordinate origin of a template
    • Adjusting the scale of a template

Changes to the apps available in CYPE Menu

The following modifications have been made to the apps available in the CYPE Menu:

New apps

  • Now, in addition to the apps that are translated into the installation language of the CYPE Menu, there are also apps available in English.

Deleted apps

  • CYPEPLUMBING Solar Systems. Integrated in CYPEPLUMBING.
  • CYPETEL Schematics. Replaced by CYPETEL.
  • CYPELEC Grounding IEC and CYPELEC Grounding IEEE. Integrated into CYPELEC and CYPELEC Distribution.

Update notification available

As of version 2025.b, applications now display a warning message in their initial window when a new update is available. This message provides information about the "installed version" and the "available version", together with a direct link to the Store page of the BIMserver.center web platform.

Clicking on the “Upgrade to the latest version” button automatically starts the download and installation process of the application. This feature ensures that the most current version of the program is always being used, thus benefiting from the latest improvements.

This method replaces the automatic notification and update process of a new version in the BIMserver.center programs available in previous versions.

Link to the BIMserver.center Store

In the configuration panel for each application, a direct link to its page in the BIMserver.center web store has been included.

By clicking on the “Go to BIMserver.center Store” button, users are redirected directly to the corresponding page in the Store, where they can learn more about the application, view its features, read reviews from other users and see examples of real contributions.

This feature provides easy access to additional resources and support, enhancing the user experience by providing quick and easy access to all relevant information about the applications.

Information about the license model

An information message has been incorporated into the installation button of the applications so that, before proceeding with the installation, users can identify which applications are free to use (free of charge) and which require licensing permissions (including paid modules).

This enhancement improves the user experience by providing clarity and transparency on the options available to the user based on their license model.

Installing background apps

In the new 2025.b version of CYPE Menu, the background installation feature has been added. Users can now continue working on other tasks while applications are automatically installed in the background.

During the background installation process, the “Installing program” message is displayed next to the applications button in the main CYPE Menu window. Once completed, the message disappears and the application can be run.

This feature is designed to make applications easier to use and manage, improving productivity and the overall experience by minimising waiting time and interruptions during the installation of new applications or upgrades.

Connection to BIMserver.center

There is now an additional option in the main CYPE Menu window to “Log in” to BIMserver.center.

This way, downloaded applications also appear in the user's account on the BIMserver.center platform.

Changes to the applications available from the menu

The following modifications have been made to the availability of the applications from the CYPE Menu.

New:

  • CYPEHVAC Schematics

  • ELODIE by CYPE (Only in the CYPE Menu in French)

Deleted:

  • CYPELEC Core, CYPELEC REBT, CYPELEC NF and CYPELEC RETIE. They are joined together in a single program called CYPELEC.

  • CYPESOUND CTE, CYPESOUND NRA, CYPESOUND RRAE, CYPESOUND DRAPDE. They are integrated into CYPESOUND.

  • CYPEURBAN. Available for download and installation from the BIMserver.center platform.

  • IFC Uploader. New contributions can now be created directly from the project page on the BIMserver.center platform.

  • CYPEFIRE FDS Viewer. CYPEFIRE FDS can be used to view FDS simulations.

Updating all the applications

The "Updates" option has been implemented in the main CYPE Menu window. Thanks to this tool, multiple updates of installed applications can be carried out via the CYPE Menu.


When clicking on the “Updates” option, a window opens with a list of all installed applications. Select a set of them and, after clicking "Accept", the update process will start.

During this process, progress is displayed in the main CYPE Menu window indicating the current status of the update.

If an update is available for the CYPE Menu itself, it is shown below the list of applications to be updated. However, it is important to note that the update of the CYPE Menu is carried out on its own.


This new feature makes application maintenance easier, ensuring that the latest improvements are always available.

Link to the project owner's public profile on BIMserver.center

Now, from the BIMserver.center project information window (displayed by clicking on the project name visible in the top right bar of the application), the owner's public profile page can be accessed on the BIMserver.center platform via the link inserted in the text representing the owner's name.
