Borrowing a Cabling Extension

How does one borrow a Cabling license? I cannot find other instructions that this one for Simulate:

I cannot get it to work in the same way for a Cabling license. It only works for Schematics.

 

Thank you in advance for any leads.

Heidi,

Cabling license can borrow with Creo Base license and it depends on startup configuration.

While installing Creo, you need to add Cabling license in stratup command with base license. this will borrow cabling license with base license of Creo.

Command configuration can modify using:

Execute reconfigure.exe from <Creo Install location>\parametric\bin

Select Next on first two pages and Customize on third page

Select Creo Parametric in left > Command configuration tab > edit > Move cabling license to right.

Heidi.

Does the information in reply to this post answer your query?

Hello Mahesh,

Thank you for your reply.

We have not got it to work. It is strange since the application Cabling starts as it should (there is only one start configuration of Creo) but when you do a borrow, the Cabling extension is not borrowed. Could it have something to do with having both a wireless network and a wired connection to the server?

Heidi,

can you show us output from ptcstatus.bat launched after borrowing action ?
