Step 2: Specify Optional Environment File
If you want PC-DMIS to use a specific installation of CATIA 5 installed on your system, you will need to complete the following optional steps. If you don’t do these steps, then the default installation of CATIA 5 will be used. This is usually the latest CATIA 5 release installed on your system. In most cases, the default installation of CATIA 5 is sufficient.
To specify a non-default CATIA 5 installation that PC-DMIS uses, you will need to specify the environment file in the PC-DMIS Settings Editor program. The environment file contains settings needed for CATIA 5 to run properly. The default environment file is usually located at “c:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Application Data\DassaultSystemes\CATEnv\DefaultEnvironment.txt”. (Here {username} should be replaced by the username of the currently logged in user.) A complete list of all the environment files is usually located at “c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\DassaultSystemes\CATEnv”. To specify which environment file to use, follow these steps:
From the Start menu, select Programs | PC-DMIS for Windows | Settings Editor.
In the Settings Editor program, browse to the CATIA 5 section and select the EnvPath entry.
For the Current Value, enter the full path to the environment file. For example, if you wanted to specify the file CATIA.V5R12.B12.txt located in the c:\Files directory, you would enter “c:\Files\ CATIA.V5R12.B12.txt”.
Save your changes and close the PC-DMIS Settings Editor. |
