The Import Part dialog box appears. Click the Name-Repair tab to set the following: Name The name of the new part. For more information, see Using basic dialog box components. If you want to import an individual part from the CATIA file, you can toggle on Import part number and enter the number of a single part to import from the file.
Click the Part Attributes tab to set the following: The modeling space of the part being imported. The type of the part being imported. Alternatively, you can select Discrete rigid to import a discrete rigid part or select Eulerian to import an Eulerian part.
Start a Version 5 Session. Option: Check : for simulation. For more information about this option, please refer to Checking V4 Model data before Copying it to V5. But some combinations are not supported and a Warning appears if you have selected wrong combinations. The following table shows you what is supported X :. Batch reduces the number of interactions and offers possibilities to make more relevant migrations for complex V4 data structures.
In this report, you can also find information about: Migration's options list, only 3D will be migrated. General Cases: The entities being able to have a uuid are: by default, the workspaces are the only elements which have a uuid. Another element can have or not a uuid, depending if they are published or not.
The publishable elements are geometrical entities except dittos. Specific Batch Cases: When you select several models for the migration, several cases may occur: Model with several workspaces having the same uuid. Control of the Check UUID This control of the Check UUID will be done during the check or the migration: During the check, it makes it possible to see the problems upstream, the generation of documents which could false.
However, there are solutions to solve the conflicts: If the UUID in conflict are in distinct documents, the user migrates each document separately. In the specification tree or geometry area where the Version 4 model isdisplayed, select the geometrical element or elements you wish to convert. If you intend to copy the geometry you can either:drag and drop the element s onto the appropriate location in the CATIAVersion 5 document.
The cursor changes slightly i. If the cursor changes to the symbolallowed in that location. This operation recovers the specifications previously put in the clipboard. If you intend to copy the specifications:a. The dialog box opposite appears. This operation recovers thespecifications previously put in theclipboard. Click the Update icon to view the copied data. You may want to click the Fit All In icon to fit all data in the window. If you copied the geometry the result should look something like this:.
This file can be visualized separately or inserted into the ProductStructure application. The text and dimension types supported by V5R3 are converted into V5 geometry. Those types not supported by V5R3 appear as brokeni. You cannot directly migrate V3 texts and dimensions into V5. They must first be migratedto V4. The following task shows how drafting data is pasted from an existing Version 4 modelto a new Version 5 document. You can of course also insert the V4 data into anexisting Version 5 document alongside V5 drafting data.
Open a CATDrawing document. In the specification tree or geometry area where the Version 4 drawingis displayed, select the view you wish to copy into CATIA Version 5. You can select several views if you prefer.
Put the view s you have selected in the clipboard. This operation recovers the view previously put in the clipboard. The result should look something like this:. The smallest unit that you can copy is the view. However,if the last two lines of the declaration above are not specified it is assumed by thesystem that both V4 and V5 areinstalled on a local machine.
It looks like this:. You will remember that in Version 4 the declaration parameter catsite. Such information such as the writing code page wasspecified in V4 by means of the parameter settings in the declaration files. Such information must therefore be provided by means of the dialogboxes described below, before attempting to save a V5 CATPart document as a V4 model.
If you want to use the writing code page ISO go straight to step 4. It is the default value so normally,unless another code page was already specified, you can go ahead with the save. However, if you want to use a writing code page other than ISO start with step 1.
The Options dialog box appears with the Generalcategory selected in the left-hand column. The following dialog box appears In the Save As dialog box, select the location of the. Click the Save as type: list and select model in the list displayed as shown below. In the same box, click on Save.
The MultiBodyAssembly. Make sure that an http server has been installed on the machine where the objects reside. Alibrary is made up of a number of families each of which contains objects. Keywords are attributed to these families to enableclassification and easy retrieval of the objects contained in them. Just like Version 4 models, Version 4 library objects cannot be edited as such. However, it is possible to convert the libraryobjects into CATPart documents.
Read-only operations are of course allowed. This means, for example, that no detail containing structure pointing to a section can be read. In the File Selection dialog box, enter, in the field File name, the whole address of the library object you want to open,including the library name, as shown below.
If you enter the wrong location or if the library name cannnot be found, exitthe dialog box and start over. The name of the library appears.
Double-click on the library name to display the library families. Then double-click on one of the objects belonging tothese families, CUBOID in the example shown below, to see the whole structure of the library. A dialog box similar to thisis then displayed:.
To open a library object, double-click on it. Alternatively, select the library object, right-click and select Open. Click the Files of type: list, select library as the document type. The File Selection dialog box is displayed. Note that the items displayed in this dialog box do not correspond to the hierarchical structure of the library. Families and libraryobjects are displayed at the same level.
Both these files are requiredfor library management purposes. Then double-click on theobjects belonging to these families to see the whole structure of the library. The following dialog box is then displayed Both these files are required for library management purposes.
A dialog box appears showing the name of the family. Double-click on this family name to display the whole structure of thefamily then double-click on a library object to open it. Theresult is the same as above. To access a library object directly, select it in the File Selection dialog box.
The result is the same as above. Remember that in CATIA V4 , some properties associated with a family, called keywords, can beassigned to objects of the given family. Select the library object whose keywords you want to display C2, for example andright-click. In the menu that appears, select Show Keyword In themenu thatappears,select ShowKeyword Thereappears alist of thekeywordsfor thelibraryobjectselected.
Click OK to close the list. Have a Version 4 library and its contents open as shown below. In the dialog box above, display all the objects contained within a family, CUBOID forexample, by clicking on the plus sign opposite the family name, select the family name andright-click. SelectFilter in themenu thatappears. Thedialog boxopposite isdisplayed. Complete the fields, then click Apply to redisplay the whole family structure. Click Reset to display the whole family structure as it was prior to the filter application.
Select the library object and right-click. In the menu that appears, select either:Convert to Part AsSpec Convert to Part AsResult A new window is displayed showing the converted object. You may now want to click the Fit All In iconto fit all data in the window. Alternatively, you can of course In both cases, only solid-type elements exact solids i. If details reference other subdetails the whole of the geometry is exploded in one single CATPartdocument.
Have the documents table. The keywords relating to the library family are converted into catalog keywords as shown in the table below.
These keywordsdefine the associated chapter. The chapter createdbecomes the main entry point of the library converted into a catalog. Migrating the actual dataBear in mind the following:.
No V4 link is kept between the V4 library and the new V5 catalog. Other library objectssuch as DRAW details, symbols, sections and tools cannot be migrated. Only solid-type elements exact solids i. If details reference other subdetails the whole of the geometry is exploded in one single CATPart document. This library declares the library conversion method. The Options dialog box appears with the General category selected in the left-hand column.
Click the! The following dialog box appears. Make sure it is in the Selected list before clicking OK. If the batch operation is unsuccessful check to make sure that CclTypeLib has been declared.
Open the file ConvertLibrary. CATScript: and select the appropriate setting where you see an arrow. CloseEnd SubAs you can see, this file, written in the VBScript language, contains the information required to batch-convert a V4 library into aV5 catalog file in the location you specify. Do not forget to use the http protocol onWindows to access the library and the PRJ file. In the example above the CATScript file contains just one set of instructions to batch-convert a single library.
However, aCATScript file can of course include several series of instructions for the conversion of several libraries. Select the appropriate setting where you see an arrow and close the file when you have finished. Consequences of migration on filenamesOn Windows, it is extremely important to be aware of the consequences of migration on filenames.
The defaultcorrespondence table can be modified but you cannot avoid the replacement of these characters. To avoid excessively long document names it is advisable to modify the default conversion table. Only national characters and those characters not supported by Windows can be declared in the correspondence table. Forexample, you cannot decide that you want to change all characters from "a" to "w".
If you now wish to act on the information above and modify the string to replace one of the characters in the defaultconversion table, open the file table.
You are now ready to run the batch operation. In the dialog box that appears, select the appropriate ConvertLibrary. CATScript file. Make sure that at the bottom ofthe box External File is selected indicating the location of the macro.
Click on Run. If more than one occurrence of the same V5 name is detected the older CATPart documents are overwritten. You are thereforestrongly advised to modify the conversion table so that CATParts are not created with the same name. If you chose MIGRATION the batch operation will generate:a report in the same location as the catalog file, allowing you to verify successful migrationand a catalog with the name of the library.
If a library is migrated to the same directory twice the catalog both catalog and CATParts generated by the previousmigration is overwritten by the new one. Before importing CDMA data residing on a DB2 database, you should checkthat the client DB2 database installation has been performed for the databaseyou plan to use. However,modifications cannot be written back to the CDMA database. The Options dialog box appears. Select the option Database Administration to declare the logical name of yourdatabase in your Version 5 environment and click on the Apply button.
This step is intended to define the parameters for connecting to the CDMA databases you wishto use. The Database Server Administration dialog box is displayed. The Known Servers frame should initially be empty.
Click on New to declare a new server. The dialog box below is displayed. In this dialog box, enter the server's logical name in the Name field. In the Connection String field, enter connection string declared in thetsnames.
