I'm trying to make an external database of TC numbers trigger a journal to allow a "hyperlink" feature to the models. Is there any Nxopen or vba trick to allow this? We have an external database that drive purchasing and it is being fed by Team Center. Trying to complete the loop and allow...
C:\SIEMENS\TC_NX_Config\NX\NX2306\03_ProductionSystem\Global\Site\SiteDir\startup\nx_site.dpv is the site settings. The user level of customer defaults comes up as "unlocked" but all options are greyed out. The system is controlled via our colleagues in Europe we are trying to get a bit of...
The last couple years the reuse library seems very slow. We did a refile on the bump to NX 10 wondeirng if the refile is required as we are now in 2306? Using from home via vpn is auwful slow more than hour to cache the initial load. In the past maybe 5-10 minutes.
Is anyone running Teamcenter NX through VDI server. We are trying this and sometimes it seems fine others it is super laggy. Large assemblies give it grief. I'm not sure the RAM is real quantiy what we are assigned or if it is a shared RAM. Models freeze and monitoring it is not using half of...
Hi we tried to upgrade my pc to ideas 6.7 to get NX connection to the TDI library. No luck on this so rather than upgrade the whole team rolled my pc back to Ideas 6.3. (we had a clone of the TDI for testing) Uninstalled ideas and Orbix. Installed the old orbix and ideas 6.3 and now I do not...
Hi we keep having issues with single sided diameters on our drawings disappearing/deleted when we open next time and make change to print. Is there a best practice on this? Possibly turn this into a no updated dimension similar to a note? Getting frustrated as this happens quite often. Currently...
Hi is there a license or tool to import native ideas files into the latest NX? Our company has many loose/native (TDM was not used) files with extension names from .a50, m21, m72, m11, m12 and .mx6 Is there a tool similar to the ideas asc tool to open these? All are 2d drawings.
Thanks in advance.
Anyone had any luck with this open Ideas command? trying it out to get this to function to transfer legacy data. Keep getting "Unable to connect to I-deas server" error.
Our setup is latest NX version 1919 and IdeasNX 6.3 running TDM server. Don't see the userprof.prg file mentioned in the...
Curious if anyone has had this issue. Sometimes we share jobs with other divisions and we are running native NX. The hardware between the two locations is in a different network location. Can a journal file be written to quickly update this? The reuse file structure is the same (out of the box...
Hi We have some legacy automation in ideas and I was trying to see how to port it into NX 12. The commands are currently driven from an old cadsys program. Is there a command cross reference somewhere I can look up? The goal it total conversion. The process is baby steps get cadsys outputing in...
Hi with all the closures around the world we have moved our offices to home base and working remotely. All seems to work fine. The major exception is the reuse library of hardware. This takes a long time to load and slows the computer once I access it. Is there any tips or tutorials to ensure we...
I have a suppliers drawing and imported it into NX 10 part. It shows up in model space as dxf and all lines and text are intact. I have two separate pages and imported them into separate models. I than made a new drawing (with our titleblock) and added views of each model part (dxf drawing)...
Hi, We are looking at upgrading NX 10 to NX 12. The last time we bump from NX 8 to 10 we ran refile on the reuse library. The library parts upgraded as we opened them but I do remember the reuse library is write protected. Is this still the process to use? Any other tips on the upgrade? We will...
Is it possible to have two installs of teamcenter running. I know you can have different versions of NX running on the same PC. Is this this possible with Teamcenter and does the license work for both or would you need license for each version. The situation we have is only certain divisions has...
Is there a way with admin rights to clean up library items in the TDM? We had a few items created with improper project numbers and have moved data to the proper library and would like to delete these empty libraries but don't seem to have the option to do this once it is created.
Hello, I'm wondering if there is a method to take multiple sections views and stack them on top of one another? Also can they be constraint to one another. In the past the drawings were done in 2D SDRC I-deas drawings. In I-deas it is easy to cheat a view and over lay several sections of the a...
Not sure what I am doing wrong. I'm trying to use an older Ideas drawing we have to update in NX 10. I exported the asc drawing file. I imported the drawing into NX 10. I'm trying to use the synchronous move line command. I can't select any of the lines. I checked and it isn't a layer thing. No...
Looking for a good way to reproduce a company standard drawing. We produce generators the items are cylindrical. In the past there is typically a plan view and each quadrant of the machine is cut to a certain height. For example one quadrant could show the bearing portion the next quadrant would...
I've had a request for updating an existing model and assembly of a part that was designed in inches and we are now building in Metric. Is there a tool to convert the part so all the sketches and design features are updated to metric? I have seen the feature to change any further measurements...
