The Catia v5 adapter is a stand-alone application that is part of the DEHP project. It provides a way to exchange data between an ECSS-E-TM-10-25 hub data source and a Catia instance.
The adapter is capable of transferring data such as mass moment of inertia, centre of gravity, orientation and position, user defined shape parameters. But also, the adapter can add to the connected Catia model new 3d and 2 shapes based on Cat Part templates.
Between the setting up of the mapping and the transfer, the adapter provides a preview of mapped things by Highlighting changes in the relevant data trees and displaying representation of things that have been mapped. It is also possible to filter the preview by selection and to select what can be transferred from the things that are mapped.
The adapter keeps track of the mapping and saves in the ExternalIdentifierMap of the open Iteration.
The Catia Adapter eases the way engineer will use Catia v5 and COMET®, by providing easy data exchange.
The adapter needs two data sources to be operational.
- A WSP or a COMET® server connected to a COMET® database.
- A running instance of Catia v5 with a Cat Product open and at the top of the open models in the software.
The Catia v5 adapter is stand-alone application, so no installation of the software itself is required. It is sufficient to run the executable "DEHCatia.exe" to get the adapter running. The software runs on windows system and on both 32bits and 64bits platform.
The minimum hardware configuration is the following.
- 1 GHz or faster processor
- 512 MB of RAM (work with larger models will require larger RAM usage)
- 50 MB of available hard disk space
- A display with a minimum resolution of 800 pixels by 600 pixels
The Catia v5 adapter is targeting .Net 4.7.2, therefore it is compatible with the following platform:
- Windows 7 SP1 (x86 and x64)
- Windows 8.1 (x86 and x64)
- Windows 10 Anniversary Update (x86 and x64)
- Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (x64)
- Windows Server 2012 (x64)
- Windows Server 2012 R2 (x64)
- Windows Server 2016 (x64)
The Catia v5 adapter requires that the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2 runtime [RD1] is installed to run. Which is usually the case by default if you are running an up-to-date version of Windows 10.
The Catia adapter requires that a Catia v5 instance with a Cat Product open, runs locally to use the software at full potential. For the adapter to able to connect to the Catia software, it is required that the Catia and the adapter are runs under the same user privileges.
The software is released as a zip folder and its packed with all the required libraries. To get the adapter running it's necessary that all the content of the zip file gets extracted.
