NX for Manufacturing

Summary


Details

The customer is using custom tcl and def files for the tool handling. After installing a Maintenance Release it is not possible to retrieve tools anymore. When examining the log file we see that it references the file .../mach/updates/library/tool/ascii/dbc_tool_ascii.def, which is not the correct file to use. 

Is there a way to disable the use of library files in the updates folder?



Solution

To disable the use of library files in the updates folder go to Customer Defaults and toggle off "Manufacturing --> General --> Software Updates --> Library Files --> Use Latest Updated Libraries".


For more info about this functionality and toggle see the NX Help under "Manufacturing (CAM) --> Manufacturing General --> CAM libraries --> Using the latest libraries in native NX".
