Using ugbatch
The operation of the Creo View Adapter for NX involves utilizing a single command to publish CAD data.
The form of command line is as follows:
ugbatch [options] <cad_data>
A command line conversion has the following stages:
1. Open a command prompt and navigate to the directory containing the CAD data NX to convert.
For the purposes of this example, the directory is C:\ug_data\.
|
|
The environment of the command prompt must be configured to run NX; for example, the UGII_BASE_DIR environment variable must be correctly set.
|
2. Type in the ugbatch command, for example:
c:\\ptc\\ug_setup\\ugbatch -p output ug_test.prt
In this example, the command line can be broken down in order, from left to right, as follows:
a. The setup directory containing the adapter configuration, followed by the command to convert the data:
C:\ptc\ug_setup\ugbatch
b. Option -p <output path> is shown as output. This is the name of the directory where the adapter places the converted data.
c. The NX data to be converted is given as ug_test.prt.
3. Press ENTER and ugbatch is launched. When the command prompt returns, the conversion is completed.

ugbatch can publish more than one CAD data at a time. To publish a list of CAD data, type all of the names on the command line separated by a space. Wildcards (asterisks *) can also be used, if the user is confident that the data returned will be correct.

4. You can now open the converted data output in Creo View.
