Catia Part Design Exercise 122.pdf

In this tutorial, we provide step-by-step instructions for how to install 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA. If you encounter any problems following these steps, do not hesitate to submit a support ticket on the GoEngineer customer portal or email our support team at sup...@goengineer.com.
Note: The use of Remote Desktop Connections can work to run CATIA. However, you may be limited by the configuration of the remote connection software. A certified machine, as per the link above, cannot be guaranteed to run CATIA properly when accessed through a remote connection.
Step 2: Create a directory on your local drive. Move all downloaded installation files to this directory. Avoid using special characters and spaces when naming the folder. The directory path cannot exceed 180 characters in length. You may place these files on your Desktop to help avoid this. This folder (including all installation files) may be deleted after completing the installation processes.
Step 5: The install wizard for 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA will now open. You can proceed with the default inputs provided within the install wizard. If you wish to modify any input from the default, you may do so at your own discretion. However, we cannot guarantee that your software will function as intended. If you wish to do this, it may be advisable to contact catias...@goengineer.com for guidance.
Additional resources may be chosen to be installed by checking the box next to Install all additional resources. The amount of space the resources will consume is listed at the bottom of this window.
Step 2: Open the resulting folder from the previous step. Using the Search bar at the top right of the window, search for setup.exe. Double-click on the setup file to begin the installation.
The Native Apps Content should be installed into the same Dassault Systmes folder that you chose for the base software during Step 5 of the Install 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA section.
Note 2: This will need to be performed on the machine that is hosting the DSLS only. If there is only one machine running CATIA, the DSLS can be installed on that same machine. If there is more than one machine running CATIA, it is suggested that the DSLS be installed on a dedicated machine.
Step 4: Once connected, navigate to the top banner and select License > Enroll. At this point, Windows Explorer will pop up. Navigate to the location where you stored your .LICZ file, highlight it, and select Open. If there is more than one .LICZ file that was delivered to you from DoNotReply.ag...@3ds.com, they must be enrolled individually by repeating this step for each subsequent .LICZ file.
Note 2: This file will enable users to check out licenses by telling CATIA what machine to find the DSLS and through which port to make the connection. Therefore, this must be performed on every machine that CATIA is installed on.
Step 3: Within this file, we will input an alpha-numeric string that will conform to one of two syntaxes. The choice of syntax will depend on whether the machine running the DSLS is the same as the one running CATIA.
Note: For both scenarios, it is critical that the .txt files contain only the string as noted above and that there are no empty spaces or lines before or after. If there are any empty spaces or lines in this file CATIA will not open properly.
Note 2: This portion is required for the scenario where CATIA and the DSLS are installed on separate machines. For this scenario, this portion must be performed on the machine running the DSLS as well as any machine running CATIA. If there is only one machine running CATIA and it is the same machine that the DSLS is installed on, this portion can be skipped.
Next, you will be prompted to log in. If you are an administrator for your company, you should have set up your login information when you created your 3DS account during the section in the documentation labeled Retrieve Installation Files. You must use that same login information here. If you are a user, the administrator in your company should have set up a login and password for you to use. Please refer to them for this information.
