Summary


Details

How can you post the machine code file to the OS in Teamcenter? 

Solution

If you want to use the CAM templates from the OS and you want to save the posted files in the OS, the best approach would be to change the nxdm_ugs_manufacturing_templates.pax located in the 

C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX 10.0\UGII\templates\ directory. 

Change the line in that file:

( FROM )<Configuration>${UGII_CAM_CONFIG_DIR}cam_part_planner_library.dat</Configuration>

( TO )<Configuration>${UGII_CAM_CONFIG_DIR}cam_general.dat</Configuration>

nxdm_ugs_manufacturing_templates.pax

If you just want to make available the option to post the machine code file to the OS edit the 

cam_part_planner_library.dat located at:

C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX 10.0\MACH\resource\configuration

( FROM ) LIBRARY_CAM_OUTPUT,${UGII_CAM_LIBRARY_TEMPLATE_DIR}cam_output.def,${UGII_CAM_LIBRARY_TEMPLATE_DIR}cam_output.tcl

( TO ) #LIBRARY_CAM_OUTPUT,${UGII_CAM_LIBRARY_TEMPLATE_DIR}cam_output.def,${UGII_CAM_LIBRARY_TEMPLATE_DIR}cam_output.tcl
