To Set Up Clocking Angle Information for Report Tables
1. In a 3-D assembly, click
Piping Info. The
Report Pipeline dialog box opens.
2. Under Info Type, click Clocking Angle.
3. Under Definition, click Segment and select a pipe segment with flexible portions.
You cannot select a segment with a bend or miter cut.
4. Click 1st Coordinate System to select the first coordinate system. The coordinate system origin must be coincident with the highlighted end of the selected pipe segment, and the z-axis of the coordinate system must be aligned pointing inward along the pipe segment from that end.
5. Click 2nd Coordinate System to select the final coordinate system. It must lie at the highlighted end of the specified segment. If an evaluate feature does not exist for the clocking angle for the segment, the system creates one.
An evaluate feature is described in the Part Modeling online Help.
6. Check the
Designate for Report Setup box. The
Saved Analyses box opens. Specify the name you want and click
.
7. The system displays an INFORMATION WINDOW and writes it to a file. In a drawing table, use parameters under report parameter using clk_ang.
