IGRIP–Software Settings

Scope:

This procedure describes how to launch an IGRIP session and become familiar with the IGRIP workbench toolbars.

Procedure:

The Training Manuals are divided into modules and steps. Depending on the class, each module represents the configuration and each step in the module guides you through a procedure. A project will be created from start to finish.

Settings

This reviews the setting required for our project.

1. Launch the software. To do this, click the icon on the desktop, or select Start / Programs / DELMIA, DELMIA V5.

2. In the menu bar, select Tools / Options.

3. span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;;z-index:23;left:0px;margin-left:127px;margin-top:110px;width:230px; height:39px'Select General / General tab. In the save field, deactivate Automatic Save.

4. In the Document tab click on Other folders (make sure it says Yes under the Active column). Click the Configure button.

When creating a process, users may choose to obtain part geometry from another file. The original storage location of these files probably differs from the current location of files. When V5 attempts to read these files, it cannot find them because pointers inside of the data still point to the original location. Configure this location to link to the directories where the project is saved.

5. In the Other Folders window, search for the project and add the directory with the Add Tree button. Click on OK to complete this setting.

span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;;z-index:15;margin-left:254px;margin-top:43px;width:102px;height:22px'span style='mso-ignore:vglayout; ;z-index:1;margin-left:408px;margin-top:16px;width:254px; height:238px'

span style=';mso-ignore:vglayout; z-index:1'

The project is then added to the linked document list. For this project, your teacher will detail the path.

6. In the Environment Tools toolbar, the Toggle Manipulation Handle Mode command can be toggled On/Off. When toggled on, a green box appears around the selected object. This box makes the object easier to grab and move.

7. Under the General / Display / Navigation tab, deactivate the Preselect in geometry view option.

Objects can now be chosen from the PPR tree only. If this option is active, objects in the 3D view are automatically selected by passing the mouse over them. Selections, in this made may be made that are not wanted.

8. Deactivate the Display manipulation bounding box option.

span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;;z-index:29;margin-left:155px;margin-top:201px;width:281px;height:44px'span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;;z-index:24;margin-left:173px;margin-top:54px;width:135px;height:23px'span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;;z-index:25;margin-left:168px;margin-top:104px;width:173px;height:29px'

9. In the Navigation field, activate the Gravitational effects during navigation option. Select Z.

This option is especially useful for a project with a floor; you can rotate around and the floor stays level with the viewpoint.

10. In the General / Display / Performances tab note the settings for the 3D Accuracy, the 2D Accuracy, and the Level of detail fields. The values are at the lowest setting (as shown below) to give a more exact view of the geometry with this setting. A circle is displayed as round not as an octagon.

span style=';left:61px;top:-26px;width:20px;height:20px'span style=';left:219px;top:-25px;width:22px;height:22px'

11. The General / Display / Visualization tab displays the color settings for the software. For this project, change the background to white. Click on the down arrow or click on the pull down menu to see the available colors.

span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;;z-index:16;margin-left:535px; margin-top:73px;width:200px;height:188px'

span style=';mso-ignore:vglayout;z-index:16'

The default color for a clash (collision) is orange. If the robots are orange, the clash is difficult to see. Change the clash color in the Selected elements field

 

12. In the General / Parameters and Measure / Units tab, change the length of the units to mm
