Hello ptc When trying to activate Modeling Express 6.0, to get my 72 hour key I am getting the following error in my browser "Internal server Error code 500".  As a side note, I have been having to do the 72 hour key for a couple of years now as I get a Proxy Configuration-Connection Failed error for automatic activation. This has not been a big deal as the 72 hour key is a bit of an annoyance but not that big of a deal.  Please see attached screenshots.

Hello,I am a senior year student in university, aiming to implement my previous work experience using Creo Parametric/Schematics to generate electrical wire harnesses for our Formula SAE team. This way we will better know items and wire lengths needed to make our yearly wire harness for competition, both IC and EV. I personally love Creo and hope to help future members learn this program since it's seemingly necessary to work in some high level industries.With only a university free account, trying to prove that Creo is more than useful for our efforts my previous experience is somewhat mitigated for reference. I am hoping to maybe learn of some alternative means to generate the parametric intelligent wire generation. Also is colored cabling disabled for a free account? I've attached an image of my default parameterized spool below, adjusting the name to lowercase as per some support ticket entries I read prior but to no avail.  For one person on our team hoping to join a spe

I have two problems defining the spectrum:1. Acceleration spectrum2. Displacement spectrumI tried to replicate it in Mathcad 11 without success. I followed an example created in Mathcad 13, which includes the Boolean function formulations, but the program detected errors because some variables are not defined, preventing me from graphing them.Please clarify what I'm doing wrong.  

Is there a function to convert from decimals to fractions?

Requested Improvement: There should be some visual indication in the model that the dimensions have been altered using the Analysis -> Dimension Boundaries tool (referenced as Dim Bounds in help).  An analysis feature in the model tree would be helpful,  (This would also be helpful for turning on and off the analysis, or having different analysis scenarios)Also highlighting of the alerted surfaces would also be helpful. One color for more material another for less material. Or, one color for upper boundary, and another for lower boundary.Environment: Tested in Creo 10.0.8.0. Problem: When the Dimension Boundaries feature is used and active, there is currently no indication in the model tree. The risk is that an analysis could easily be left active in a production model.  Manufacturing could manufacture to the model expecting the model to match shown dimension values.   The end result is that bad parts could be made due

Currently we have the following relation in our startpartMATERIAL = MATERIAL_PARAM("CONDITION")This arranges that the parameter MATERIAL is filled with value of the material parameter CONDITION. This parameter MATERIAL is shown in the BOM.As with Creo 7 there is the multi-body added. In this situation it is possible to use multiple materials in one part. When this is the case there is a parameter PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL created which contains the name (I think it's also the condition name) of the used materials separated by a ",", see below.  I thought I update the relation in our startpart (template) but it is not possible to use the relationMATERIAL = PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL It then shows the error "Invalid symbol ' PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL ' found.". Somebody a solution?   

I attempted to upgrade from CREO Parametric 11.0.4.0 to 11.0.6.0 this morning. When I go to start 11.0.6.0, it fails to start because it cannot find a .psf file. The only "reconfigure.exe" file I can find is in the C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin folder, which merely shows me the available license server. I cannot uninstall under Windows either. Is there a way to salvage this installation or manually uninstall and start over? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello All,I’m not sure why the textbox result in P10 doesn’t have a red box around it, while the one in P11 does.In P10In P11Regards,Sam 

This is handy.  I modified it today to use with G-Post (I have been using FORTRAN posts for 25+ years, and just made the switch this year).  This will build a setup sheet from your apt source file.  It should be easy enough to understand and tweak for your own needs.  I find it very handy for creating run books. I compiled using FreeBasic but it's easy to convert to your language of choice. You can create a .bat file and attach it to one of your Cimpro buttons:echo offcd %2@C:\anc\camsys\SetupSheetHelper.exe %1 Main Program:'*********************************************************************'SetupSheetHelper Main Program'Bryan Felsher                        01-03-10'Modified 10-17-2025 BCF for AUSTIN NC G-POST'*********************************************************************Dim Shared As Integer i=0,n=0,iTLNUM,SEQNUM=0,iPRNUMDim Shared As Integer FILTYP = 0, FREAD = 0Dim Shared As Strin

We would like to update our MultiCAD environment to a newer Creo version 11/12CS134024 shows that Creo 9 has compatibility to SolidWorks 2025 in Version 9.0.12.0.When does this support comes in Creo 10/11/12 ?We have a multiCAD environment and this holds us back to upgrade from 10 to 11/12.Regards,Marc

Hi there ,To be honest I don't even know I need to multiple selective values in a matrix with selective values in another matrix . I used ( submatrix function ) however it didn't work :where m is a row number Here I want mathcad to multiple the first three values from both d and z Can you help me doing this ? the sheet is attached Thanks Yusra  

I have a failed upgrade of CREO Parametric, 11.0.4.0 to 11.0.6.0, that I am struggling with. The error message is ERROR: Unable To Launch Application Because No Valid Configuration File (*.psf) Files Were Found. Articles from the Knowledgebase state to run "reconfigure.exe" from the C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 11.0.6.0\Parametric\bin folder, but the only "reconfigure.exe" that exists is in the C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin folder and does nothing but see the available license server when run. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

I frequently find one or more of these processes consuming 100% of a core each. While I do have a plurality of cores, I do not particularly fancy using them for power-consuming bugs. It seems they are Chrome related, and that IE is no longer supported. So what can I do about it, except killing the processes when I find them surging? Windows 10 22H2, Creo 11.0.5.0, Threadripper Pro. Airgapped, no PDM.

Hello Community,  Please find the mathcad file in the attached it was developed in PTC91.In the following after the symbolic evaluation the units are not simplifying, for instance Ohms*Faradsshould be seconds, and Farad * Voltage should be Columbs, but 2.After Q2 as assigned as the result after the integration, when I try to call on Q2 it cannot be found, can someone please explain? Thanks 

I'm using WRITECSV to write the contents of a matrix to a .CSV file. The WRITECSV function writes the contents with full precision, giving me numbers with 18 decimal places. I want to round the elements to a few decimal places. I wrote a function to do this, but it feels kind of clunky. Is there a native way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? I'm using Prime 11. 

I was able to import the XML from Creo Schematics and autoroute my harness, however, the spools imported by the XML are locked and I'm not able to edit them in Creo. i.e. if I want to change the bend radius or the color or any other parameter in the spool, the spool it's locked. Image on left shows the locked icon and image on right shows unlocked spool    Locked icon in model treeUnlocked icon in model tree

Hello!!i am kind of new to the program and I have researched but still can not find the answer. I tried to create a solve block where I can get the final reult of a variable H_2 but it does not work.I upload a PDF of the problem. I believe is not difficult but perhaps I am missing something

Why doesn’t Mathcad Prime 11.0.1 no longer accept ASCII code [13] for carriage return (new line)?It appears to work in version 10.0.1 but not in 11.0.1. Is this true for everyone else or just me?I have both versions on the same computer--is there something I am missing?   

We apologize for the inconvenience. Our IT department is actively working on the Creo Elements Direct Modeling Express issue and we will let you know once the issue is resolved.

Hello, I am using the free Creo Elements direct Modelling express program and would like to save my 2D drawing in annotation as DXF. Unfortunately, I do not understand on your help page in which file I should change something so that I can save a dxf file. Can you offer me further assistance? Many thanks in advance and best regards Daniel

Hi there,I am trying to fetch the required gross concrete cross sectional area of an RCC column using the SYMBOLIC Solver function as shown below. But I could not figure out what is causing this abnormal output. Could someone kindly clarify this issue? I would be much obliged.   

Where can I see the licenses I've purchased and when they expire?

The Mathcad rounding and truncation functions take the form function(z,y), where z may be complex but y must be real,   This is an unnecessary restriction and contravenes the Zen of Mathcad Rule 16.   This Mathcad Enhancement Proposal (MEP) extends the y argument to accept complex numbers.   Furthermore, the rounding and truncation functions operate only on scalars and vectors, not on matrices.  This is, again, an unnecessary restriction.   This MEP extends the truncation and rounding functions to accept matrix arguments.   The MEP further adds a function frac(z) that complements trunc by returning the fractional part of complex z; frac vectorizes over its arguments.    The MEP further extends the mod function to accept complex arguments; mod vectorizes over its arguments.       Stuart   Demonstration Mathcad Express 10 worksheet attached in support o

What I have here are two measured displacements over the same time with an equal interval of 1 second. Both oscillations tend to approach the resting asymptote, which is the same for both. The first one at the end of measurement didnt manage to approach, but the second did.For my task, I had to find periods and amplitudes of oscillations. To get periods, I simply used the difference between two interceptions of oscillation with asymptote via root() function. One of the arguments for this function is a guess points between which this interception should be met. For those points I pick local extremas (or peaks shortly). To get them, I need to know the first derivative of the oscillation function and look for the points where derivative becomes zero. But in my case, I have only empirical data, which I have to use to get proper constants a and w for the oscillation equation.Based on this, I created splines for both data sets, and started taking derivatives to find a slope.To get local
