Time 25:12 Context: So once we have the connection established, we can connect to server and I'll throw my in my (ThingWorx)credentials. That sounds insecure, right?
Q (from Robert): There's a there's one question, OK, the config dot properties, it's the configuration file that is, the question is parameter files, login information. That sounds insecure, right.
A (From PTC Lino/Emily);
But I mean, that's individual to that computer. So it's it's it's it does require you to to make that connection.. You need something live. You could secure that file, of course, that configuration so that, you know, we can make it a little bit more secure...you'll notice I just had to in order to access this in Creo, you know, any of that data that's in Thingworx, I had to log into Thingworx....So that's part of the Thingworx security layer.
Time 43:53 Context: So Thingworx is what we call like a low code environment where you're doing all of the business logic to set up what would be, you know, a full blown connected products application and monitoring system.
Q (from Thomas): Is ThingWorx required for Creo product insight?
A (from PTC Lino/Emily):
So if you don't have ThngWorx, the only thing you would need to do in order to get the sensor data in here is to go to load data, load file and then you could pull up your CSV file and the CSV file looks just like this.
Q (from Thomas): Is Creo Product Insight part of any package?
A (from PTC Lino/Emily): So the product is called Creo Product Insight and it has a part number associated with it. So it's an a la carte option. You do not need anything but Creo Product Insight in order to bring your CSV data in and run all the simulations that I showed, right.
54:05 Q (from Saul) Can the sensor calculate performance of the assembly/product considering the variation (max/min values) of the involved components as well?
A (from PTC Lino/Emily): So yes, assemblies or parts doesn't really matter the variation or maximum values of the involved components as well.
As promised during the beginning of this call, Emily Yoder (Pinto) will be sharing more Creo Tips and Techniques including Sketcher and Multibody topics! Please join us if you are local to Bedford, MA!
