Teamcenter X While generating JT from Teamcenter using Dispatcher, Layers from NX are not get

1. While generating JT from Teamcenter using Dispatcher Service and OOTB "NX to JT" (ugtopv) translator, it should export "Layers" from NX data to JT file.

To achieve above, as per documentation and information from previous IR, we did following :

1. Opened NX data from Teamcenter and verified Layers are available in NX
2. Then on Translation Server (where Scheduler, Module service and translators are available), verified NX 1872 is installed.
3. Then on Translation Server, went to location <NX_Installation_location>\PVTRANS (D:\Program Files\Siemens\NX1872\PVTRANS)
4. Opened and updated file tessUG.config as described below :
5. Added Layers in Filter as shown below :

Filter {

layerON = "1, 90, 91, 92, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112"

}

b. Updated from checkLayers = false to checkLayers = true

c. Validated getAttributes = true

d. Validated activateFilters = "LAYER"

e. Rest all kept as they are

1. Saved tessUG.config
2. Triggered JT translation from Teamcenter

Result :

Translation happened using dispatcher service. One JT dataset got generated and attached to Item Revision in Teamcenter.

but, when we downloaded "Named Reference" file from JT dataset, and verified with "Teamcenter Visualization" "Base" version, we could not see "LAYERS" in it.

While generating JT from Teamcenter using Dispatcher, get Layers from NX

1.)    Set UGII_GENERATE_MULTI_CAD_JT=1 as an environment variable on your Disp. Server

2.)    Apply tessUG.config (version NX1872) as is, you may change options as needed later:

version "EAITranslator" 1.0.0 "EAITranslator"

EAITranslator {

  OutputDirectory = ""

  CommonPartsPath = ""

  chordalOption = "RELATIVE"

  structureOption = "PER_PART"

  writeWhichFiles = "JTPARTS,JTASSEMBLY"

  pmiOption = "PART_AND_ASM"

  JtFileFormat = "10"

  triStripOpt = true

  seamSewing = false

  seamSewingTol = 0.001

  includeBrep = true

  autoNameSanitize = true

  updateChangedPartsOnly = false

  writeAsciiAssembly = false

  singlePartsNoAssem = false

  autoLowLODgeneration = true

  smartLODgeneration = false

  numLODs = 3

}

Filter {

  layerON = "1, 90, 91, 92, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112"

}

Metadata {

}

LOD "1" {

  Level = 1

  Chordal = 0.001

  Angular = 20

  Length = 0

  AdvCompressionLevel = 0

}

LOD "2" {

  Level = 2

  Chordal = 0.0035

  Angular = 0

  Length = 0

  FeatureSuppression = 0

  Simplify = 0.4

  AdvCompressionLevel = 0.5

}

LOD "3" {

  Level = 3

  Chordal = 0.01

  Angular = 0

  Length = 0

  FeatureSuppression = 0

  Simplify = 0.1

  AdvCompressionLevel = 1

}

ugConfig {

  doWireframe = true

  mergeSheets = false

  mergeSolids = false

  checkLayers = true

  XTbrep = true

  appendRefSetName = false

  getAttributes = true

  representAttributesAs = "DEFAULT"

  getNXBodyNames = false

  appendItemName = true

  appendRevision = true

  excludeViaRefSet = false

  usePreferredRefSets = false

  spotWeldSize = 1

  activateCsysPMI = true

  activateDimPMI = true

  activateGDTPMI = true

  activateNotePMI = true

  activateSymbolPMI = true

  activateSupplementalGeomPMI = true

  activateWelds = true

  activateWeldLabels = true

  activateTablePMI = true

  activateModelViews = "ALL"

  activateMpawPMI = true

  applyPMIRefset = true

  configureLeafNodeName = false

  configureFileName = false

  includeInvisible = true

  LogReporting = "ERROR,WARNING,INFO"

  ConsoleReporting = "ERROR"

  LogFileName = "UG_PART"

  useRefsets = "ALL"

  getCADProperties = "CAD_DENSITY,CAD_MATERIAL,CAD_MASS"

  advancedMaterials = "NONE"

  activateFilters = "LAYER"

   processPMIValidationProperties = false

}

3.)    Delete existing JT-Dataset and translate again

4.)    Sent ItemRev to Lifecycle Viewer, you should see expected results

5.)    You may need to switch Reference Set to Entire Part see below:

Action> Reference Sets…>

6.)     Switch to specific Layer as below to show related geometry:

 Action> Layer Filter…>

Select specific Layers to display separate geometry
