5.12.11.20.1.1. Set links to accessory parts in PARTsolutions

[Note]Note

With upcoming V11 SP8 any classifications can be used in order to link accessory parts. Up to now links have always been on part level.

The following diagram shows how the base part and accessory are linked:

The mounting point of the base part is uniquely determined by class + instance designation. This summarized expression is used as the ID for the accessory part.

The classification of the accessory part (CNSELEK|5|4 ) is linked to the classification of the mounting point (CNS_CP|4|6 ) by the characteristic CNS_ACCESSORYID.

The workflow is as follows:

  1. Set all the mounting points required for the accessories on the base part.

  2. Set the Mounting Point class (CNS_CP|4|6) on each of the connection points.

  3. Assign a unique value to the Accessory ID feature using the following syntax.

    CNS_CP|4|6||<Instanz>

    Dialog "Class variables" -> Class "Mounting Point" (CNS_CP|4|6) -> Feature "CNS_ACCESSORYID" here with exemplary value "CNS_CP|4|6||34"

    Dialog "Class variables" -> Class "Mounting Point" (CNS_CP|4|6) -> Feature "CNS_ACCESSORYID" here with exemplary value "CNS_CP|4|6||34"

    Dialog "Published Elements" -> Class "Mounting Point" -> Feature "Accessory ID" here with exemplary value "CNS_CP|4|6||34"

    Dialog "Published Elements" -> Class "Mounting Point" -> Feature "Accessory ID" here with exemplary value "CNS_CP|4|6||34"

  4. Set in PARTproject on the References [Links] tab page under Links to parts, set an entry with the path [Path] to the accessory part and Id that has exactly the same value as the CNS_ACCESSORYID characteristic under class Mounting Point (CNS_CP|4|6).

  5. Fill in the essential information for the accessory part in CNSELEK|5|4.

    Classification of accessory part

    Classification of accessory part

    • The Parent classType feature is given the name of the corresponding classification.

    • The Parent class Instance characteristic receives the instance of the corresponding classification.

    • The CNS_ACCESSORYID feature is assigned the same unique identifier string as the base part and is thus linked to the PSOL accessory path.

      CNS_CP|4|6||<Instanz>

      One possible form of CNS_ACCESSORYID is the composite string of Parent class Type and Parent class Instance.

    • [Note]Note

      The manufacturer name is automatically filled in later via the PSOL framework.
