Program used to generate schematics?

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around identifying the software used to create a specific schematic image. Participants suggest various programs, including xfig, Eagle, and AutoCAD, noting that the schematics appear generic and could be made with multiple tools. One contributor mentions the possibility of using the fig environment in LaTeX for similar designs. Ultimately, there is no definitive answer, but several options are provided for creating similar schematics. The conversation highlights the variety of schematic and chart-building software available.

Could someone tell me what software was used to make these? I need to create similar schematics of a DAQ system but don't know the name of the program used to do it. Thanks.

I doubt there is any way to tell - it is very generic.
I could probably draw something close to those using the fig environment in LaTeX even.
There are a lot of schematic and chart-building editors out there from xfig to via and beyond. Pick one.
 
Eagle might work.

Edit: the image kind of looks like AutoCAD to me.
 
My idea is that I want to use immerse Whitetail Antlers in a fishtank to measure their volumetric displacement (the Boone and Crockett system is the current record measurement standard to place in a juxtaposition with) I would use some sight glass plumbed into the side of the tank to get the change in height so that I can multiply by the tank cross-section. Simple Idea. But... Is there a simple mechanical way to amplify the height in the sight glass to increase measurement precision...
