Electromechanical Link Setup Dialog Box

Browse to the correct *.emx file location and reestablish the data exchange between AutoCAD Electrical toolset and Inventor projects. If you have either moved or copied your *.emx file, the electromechanical link is broken and this dialog prompts you to connect to the correct electromechanical file.
