Guidelines for Using a Custom Load Application
You can use a custom load in a force motor or a force or a torque. Select Custom load as the magnitude type on the Magnitude tab of the Force or Torque Definition dialog box, then choose an available pre-defined custom load from the Custom Load text box.
Make sure that the following setup conditions have been met in order to successfully run an analysis that uses a custom load:
• The custom load application must be loaded before the analysis can be run. Set the mdo_cl_executable configuration option to identify the executable that contains the custom load. The value for the mdo_cl_executable configuration option is the full file path to the Creo Parametric TOOLKIT executable. In a Windows system, make sure that the path uses the “\” character as a delimiter.
• Because the custom load application is loaded via the mdo_cl_executable configuration option, the standard registry file used for other Creo Parametric TOOLKIT applications is not required.

The text directory for the custom load application is assumed to be located in the same directory as the executable.
