How to merger boards in Orcad Panel Editor

Hi

Using Orcad Panel Editor. We make boards that have radios. We want to step and repeat the board to make a panel but want to include one impedance test coupon per panel.

In Orcad/Allegro we design one board with the coupon. When I import into panel editor is there a way to not step and repeat the coupon? Can I move it independently from the rest of the board?

If I make them two separate boards is there a way to import both into panel editor?

Thanks

Peter

    Fabricators have an optimal workflow of saving one image in a multi-up panel artwork, blow away the rest, optimize for their fab process, then re-copy to make the assembly panel.

    As far as I know, Panel Editor, is not designed to modify ODB data. We are expected to do the panelization in CAM350, then bring it into Blueprint/OPE.
