What these files are for
A schematic is the circuit diagram of the main board: power rails, power-up sequence, component values and net names. It is the reference for measuring voltages and tracing a fault.
A boardview is the component placement map of the PCB: click a part or a net and the viewer highlights where it is and what it connects to. Used together with the schematic to find test points.
