Summary


Details

Assemblies are not loading JT MultiCAD data in Teamcenter managed NX.

Solution

By default, NX Manager is not setup to open and load JT data (JT Datasets).  In order for this to work a Teamcenter Preference must be defined.

Teamcenter is preconfigured with a preference called TC_NX_Foreign_Datasets.  This preference allows non-NX file types (Multi-CAD) data to be opened in NX Manager.

For JT Data to be opened, the following value must be entered:

DatasetType="DirectModel" NamedReference="JTPART" NamedReferenceFormat="BINARY" NamedReferenceTemplate="jt"

Additional Dataset Types can be opened in NX by setting similar values for those types.  More information can be found in the NX documentation by searching for the above Teamcenter Preference.
