The ANSYS 13.0/13.0SP2 CAD Configuration Manager will not recognize that Autodesk Inventor 2012 is installed on a Windows computer.
Autodesk Inventor 2012 is not officially supported for ANSYS 13.0/13.0SP2. However, it can be made to work by manually configuring the ANSYS plugin into Autodesk Inventor 2012 using the following procedure and files. 1. If your OS is Windows 64-bit: Create a .bat file called reg130IntoInventor2012_x64.bat containing: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @echo on %SYSTEMROOT%System32regsvr32.exe "%AWP_ROOT130%AISOLCADIntegrationinventorwinx64DSPluginAI2010COM.dll" "%AWP_ROOT130%FrameworkbinWin64AnsRegSvr32.exe" /t "%AWP_ROOT130%AISOLCADIntegrationinventorwinx64DSPluginAI2010COM.dll" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and run as administrator. 2. If your OS is Windows 32-bit: Create a .bat file called reg130IntoInventor2012_x32.bat containing: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @echo on %SYSTEMROOT%System32regsvr32.exe "%AWP_ROOT130%AISOLCADIntegrationinventorintelDSPluginAI2010COM.dll" "%AWP_ROOT130%FrameworkbinWin32AnsRegSvr32.exe" /t "%AWP_ROOT130%AISOLCADIntegrationinventorintelDSPluginAI2010COM.dll" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and run as Administrator. 3. Copy the file Inventor.Software.XML file (attached to this solution) into %AWP_ROOT130%commonfilesregistry%ANSYS_SYSDIR%append 4. Rename the %APPDATA%ansysv130 folder to %APPDATA%Ansysv130_old to use the default preferences: Select Start > Run and enter: %APPDATA% An Explorer Window will open. Open the Ansys folder and rename the v130 folder to v130_old. 5. Start Autodesk Inventor 2012 and test the ANSYS13.0 plugin mode. 6. Start Workbench and test the Autodesk Inventor 2012 file Reader mode. |
