Update history​

CYPETEL Systems

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.

Reading mechanisms in CYPETEL Systems

As of version 2025.b, CYPETEL Systems can read the telecommunications mechanisms defined in CYPELEC Electrical Mechanisms.

CYPETEL Systems requires a definition of the outlets in the spatial position where they are located in the project.

To use this feature, when creating a job in CYPETEL Systems, users will need to link to a BIM project and import the contribution with the information from CYPELEC Electrical Mechanisms.

For faster linking, CYPELEC Electrical Mechanisms features an option to access CYPETEL Systems directly.

New example job: Infraestructura multioperador

The new job “Infraestructura multioperador” has been included.

This job shows the design of a multi-operator telecommunications infrastructure, according to the UNE 133100-6 standard, in order to allow a municipality to install telecommunications networks.

Improved options bar for entering elements in the work area

The following changes have been made to the options bar for entering elements in the work area:

  • New “Force elevation” feature
    The "2D Mode" and "3D Mode" options have been replaced by the "Force elevation" option. When the "Force dimension" option is activated, when snapping a model component, its position will be projected onto the work plane, where the new element will be inserted.
    Alternatively, when snapping a model component, the new element will be inserted at the exact position of that component, even if it is outside the working plane.

  • Viewing limits warning
    If, when entering an element in a model view, it lies beyond the visible range, a warning is now displayed in the options bar. This warning, "The point entered is beyond the limits of the view", alerts users about the position of the element beyond the visible area on the screen, allowing for a quick and accurate correction.

Implementation. UNE 133100-6 (Spain)

Infraestructuras para redes de telecomunicaciones. Parte 6: Criterios de diseño de infraestructuras de telecomunicación multioperador para nuevas urbanizaciones y reurbanizaciones.

Implemented in CYPETEL Systems.

New 3D work environment

As of version 2025.a, developing telecommunications infrastructures in CYPETEL Systems can be carried out in a 3D work environment.

The elements and conduits of the installation can be included via the "3D view" or the different work planes. Each element type corresponds to a model layer, and its visibility can be activated or deactivated independently. It has a 2D display mode for the elements to make it easier to interpret them in the drawings exported by the program.

The program allows users to continue working on 2D templates from the BIM model or imported from the program in DXF, DWG, and DWF formats, as well as in various image formats (JPEG, JPG, PNG or WMF). This way, working compatibility is maintained in projects that do not have a 3D architectural model.

The reading of jobs produced with previous versions of the program will not be affected by this modification.

Thanks to this new 3D environment, which allows contributions of urban area maps from Open BIM Site to be displayed, and to the implementation of the UNE 133100-6 standard in this version 2025.a, users can carry out urban infrastructure deployment projects for telecommunications networks in CYPETEL Systems.
