Worked for 2 mins 56 sec
Blocked: I cannot create a true internal Edge.Cuts routed slot with the available PCB edit tools in this session.
What I did:
- Removed the earlier pad-style NPTH slot, because you clarified it must not be a pad or drilled hole.
- Did not resize, move components, reroute, or modify copper.
Current DRC after cleanup:
- Airwires: 0
- Overlapping copper: 0
- Floating copper / invalid layer / missing footprint errors: 0
- Remaining: 3 pre-existing dangling-trace warnings.
Why blocked:
- The available line/shape tools only support Top/Bottom layers.
- The board-outline tool supports a single closed board outline, not a separate internal Edge.Cuts milling path.
- So I cannot safely add the requested internal routed slot as true Edge.Cuts geometry from here.
You’ll need to add this one slot manually in the PCB editor / manufacturing mechanical layer:
- Centerline: X = -8.5mm
- Start: (-8.5mm, -60mm)
- End: (-8.5mm, +60mm)
- Routed slot width: 2mm
- Non-plated milling / Edge.Cuts layer.
Export the current Gerbers without the slot, and clearly note the manual slot requirement for fabrication.
Thought for 7 sec
I’ll export the current Gerbers as-is, without the slot, and state the manual milling-slot requirement clearly for fabrication.

Exported the current Gerbers without the isolation slot: glecs-v4p1-motor-starter-controller-gerbers.zip.
Manual fabrication requirement:
- Add a non-plated routed/milled slot on Edge.Cuts, not a drill pad.
- Centerline: X = -8.5mm
- Start: (-8.5mm, -60mm)
- End: (-8.5mm, +60mm)
- Slot width: 2mm
- Length: 120mm, leaving 10mm solid board bridges at top and bottom.
Pre-export DRC gate was clean: airwires = 0, overlapping copper = 0, missing footprints = 0, invalid layer = 0.

Component Substitutions
User approved proceeding with closest available Flux library parts where exact parts were unavailable.
Table
| Required Part | Status | Approved Flux Substitution / Note |
|---|---|---|
| SIMCom A7672S-FASE QFN48 | Exact part not found | A7672SA LASE_ module used. Different pin count/pinout; verify UART/SIM/RF/power pins before production. |
| Allegro ACS712ELCTR-30A-T | Exact part not found | ACS71240LLCBTR-030B3 30A SOIC-8 used. Verify transfer function and isolation rating before calibration/production. |
| BC547 | Not found | 2N2222AUB NPN used as relay-driver substitute. Verify package and pinout. |
| P6KE30A DO214AC | Exact SMD part not found | P6SMB33CA TVS used. Verify standoff/clamp voltage for 12V rail. |
| Molex 104031-0001 | Exact SIM socket not found | Molex 78646-3001 SIM connector used. Verify mechanical fit and pinout. |
| Phoenix field terminals | Exact specified parts mostly unavailable | XY301V-A-5.0-2P placeholders used for schematic; HV connector ratings are not confirmed for 415VAC and must be replaced before layout/manufacturing. |
| LM358DR | Exact library match not found | LM258DR dual op amp used as LM358-class substitute. Verify input/output range on 3.3V/5V rails. |
| Class-X2 100nF 630VAC snubber capacitor | Exact safety capacitor not guaranteed | Generic capacitor placeholder used with Role Details note. Must be replaced with certified Class-X2 part before production. |
These substitutions are acceptable only for initial schematic topology work. Production release requires datasheet/pinout verification and replacement of placeholder HV/safety-rated parts.
