import NX8 file in hypermesh-help

I have problem with import NX 8 geometry into hypermesh. I received message: UG shared library not loaded. What is wrong?

I have installed hyperworks v11 64bit and NX8 64 bit.

Other files (catia v5) are loaded correctly.

Thank you for advice.

Hi,

you need a valdid UG license and have to specify the corresponding environmental variables.

Check the online help for more information:

HyperMesh > Geometry > CAD Interfacing > CAD Import > CAD Reader Support > UG Reader Support

'The UG reader utilizes the UGOpen library to read files from UG. The reader relies on a valid UG installation and license to access these libraries. Environment variables must be set appropriately to ensure proper access to these libraries. See the UG Environment Variables section for more information.'

Hi Stefan,

thank you for advice. You probably mean this one: http://www.altairhyperworks.com/%28S%283fu2zyrlbyi03xcofiue25jd%29%29/hwhelp/Altair/hw11.0/help/hwd/hwd.htm?ug_import.htm

But this online help doesn't tell me where and how should I set the environment. In hypermesh? Or in UG? I don't know. Can you tell me where to go in hypermesh and where set thhe UG library? Thank you.

HyperMesh > Geometry > CAD Interfacing > CAD Import > CAD Reader Support > UG Reader Support > UG Environment Variables:

UGII_BASE_DIR - This must point to the UG installation directory2.

UGII_ROOT_DIR - This must point to the UG installation UGII directory2.

PATH - This must include the %UGII_BASE_DIR%\UGII\ directory3.

UGS_LICENSE_SERVER - This must point to the UG license server1.

UGS_LICENSE_BUNDLE - This must specify the UG license bundle1.

Example: UG installation located at C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 6.0

UGII_BASE_DIR: C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 6.0

UGII_ROOT_DIR: %UGII_BASE_DIR%\UGII\

PATH: %UGII_BASE_DIR%\UGII\

UGS_LICENSE_SERVER: 28000@licsrv

UGS_LICENSE_BUNDLE: NXPTNR100

These are environment variables on operating system level (not on HM product level).

Unfortunately it doesn't work. I checked installation NX and it's OK. I will ask diferently.

If i haven't NX installation, how can I import NX files into hypermesh?

thanks
