06.20.2007 — INFOCOMM, ANAHEIM CA - June 19, 2007: D-Tools, Inc., the worldwide leader in system integration software, today announced that SI5, the latest version of its award-winning System Integrator software is now available. D-Tools System Integrator is currently used by over 2,500 companies to streamline the design, estimation, and documentation processes associated with the installation and integration of low voltage systems.

D-Tools System Integrator 5 enables systems integrators and custom installation professionals to create detailed projects managed with automated proposals, scheduling, pick lists, purchase orders, drawings and additional documents that streamline the integration of audio and video products. By using a single, shared, data-driven project file, system integrators and custom installers can better communicate all project details amongst team members, clients, and other trades. Users can download free product information from D-Tools’ comprehensive database of tens of thousands of products and their accessories, giving them the distinct advantage of designing systems using the most current product information, while saving hours of product research time.

New features in SI 5 include:

· Ease of Use: SI5 is now easier to Install, Register, and Configure than any previous version of SI. Additionally, the Navigator and the most common user interfaces have been completely redesigned to make them easier to use - increasing productivity while creating a more pleasurable user experience.

· Improved AutoCAD Features - including One-to-one Blocks & Schematics: Easily connect products in AutoCAD just like Visio. Simply drag and drop products on the Schematic drawing sheet and their Inputs and Outputs will display automatically - now drag and drop wires and connect to the products. Wire connections will stay connected even when products are maneuvered on the drawing sheet. You can run installation reports based on your connections. Hundreds of new one-to-one AutoCAD blocks representing individual products are now available covering numerous manufacturers and categories.

· Improved Proposal Generation: Allows user greater flexibility to filter, group, and sort products on Proposals, making it easier to achieve a particular look.
· Improved Product Data Matrix: Dramatic improvements to the Product Data Matrix make it easier to organize and view products in a project.

· Manage My Product Data: The User Interface for managing D-Tools’ product database has been vastly improved, making it easier to keep the user database updated. Includes the ability to import and export from CSV for bulk editing in Excel or other spreadsheet programs.

· One-to-One Product Shapes: D-Tools will supply an increasing number of Visio shapes/AutoCAD blocks which will be based on actual manufacturer product designs.

· Grouped Connectors: Sometimes a single wire will connect to more than one I/O port. SI5 will be able to show this on the schematic view while still maintaining the single wire for estimating, wire labeling, etc.
· XML Reporting Schema: Allows users to easily create custom reports in any MS Office or other XML-compatible application.

· Spell Check: Spell check capability will be available for all fields where descriptive text is entered, reducing the likelihood of errors.

“We’re extremely pleased to make these dramatic improvements to our application - making it even easier for system integrators to increase their productivity,” said Adam Stone, President and CEO of D-Tools. “Our business has been built around a single objective - to help our customers become more successful through the use of our software. That singular focus is what motivates us to continue to improve our software and ensure that our customers have a reliable, scalable business platform on which to grow their business, and SI 5 is our latest achievement towards that objective.”
