How to control the reference sets when generating MONOLITHIC JT from NX Assembly?

Solution

The said Requirement is possible using the load options file.

Consider an example of an Assembly like mentioned below -

An assembly has 3 parts, and each part contains BLOCK, CYLINDER, and SPHERE reference sets along with these geometries. Assembly is configured with BLOCK Reference Set of Part1, CYLINDER Reference Set of Part2, and SPHERE Reference Set of Part3. Refer to the below snapshot for more details on the Assembly structure –

Now I want a monolithic JT with only the BLOCK Reference Set of each part. So, I specified the "BLOCK" reference set in the load_options.def file. Refer to the below syntax of Load option File –

LoadOptions_ReferenceSets: "BLOCK" "As Saved" "Use Model" "Entire Part" "Empty"

*****************************

LoadOptions_SearchPaths: "C:\\Program Files\\Siemens\\NX1202\\UGII..."

LoadOptions_LoadComponents: load_all_components

LoadOptions_PartLoadOption: partially_load

LoadOptions_LoadWAVE: NO

LoadOptions_LoadWAVEParents: NONE

LoadOptions_LoadSubstitution: dont_allow_substitution

LoadOptions_LoadLatest: NO

LoadOptions_LoadOption: load_from_dir

LoadOptions_ManagedModeLoadOption: load_by_revision_rule

LoadOptions_LoadFilters: load_no_components

LoadOptions_LoadFailOption: dont_abort

LoadOptions_ReferenceSets: "BLOCK" "As Saved" "Use Model" "Entire Part" "Empty"

LoadOptions_ApplyAllLevels: NO

LoadOptions_GenerateMissingPFM: YES

LoadOptions_BookmarkRefSets: Import

LoadOptions_BookmarkPartsLoad: Load_Visible

LoadOptions_BookmarkRestoreFullyLoadedState: no

LoadOptions_SubsetLoadBehavior: Do_Not_Update

*****************************

Now specify the load option file on the command line using the UGII_LOAD_OPTIONS variable as shown below and then provided the translator command.
