Creo 5.0 Premium Edition Standalone Educator CFD licence

[mtepermeister]

Hi, I just installed the Creo 5.0 Premium Edition Standalone Educator edition of Creo in order to help mentor my FRC robotics team. I was excited to try out the new simulate capabilities. When I installed, I went into the "application feature" section of the installer, and saw that "Creo Flow Analysis" and "Creo Topology Optimization" were unchecked. I checked their boxes and continued installing.

Now, Creo simulate appears to work well, and topology optimization opens as well! Unfortunately, when I click "Flow Analysis", it tells me that "The selected functionality requires CFD Analysis License".

When I go to file->options->licensing, and click Refresh license list, I see an optional floating license called CFD_ADVANCED_PLUS_SET. If I select this floating module, it says that it's been activated, but still won't let me open flow analysis. It says:

Option CFD_BASIC not ordered, please contact your sales representative.
Option CFD_ADVANCE not ordered, please contact your sales representative.
Option CFD_ADVANCE_PLUS not ordered, please contact your sales representative.

What should I do? Is flow analysis actually included with the premium educator license?

Thanks so much,

~Max

Hello,

CFD is not working yet in any product code based license.

We are working on this, but sadly I can't tell you when it will be available.

Thanks,

Alex

Hey, Is there any update about whether this is possible now?

Thanks for your time!

Hi,

open parametric.psf file in Notepad (path example ... E:\PTC\Creo5_040\Creo 5.0.4.0\Parametric\bin).

Check line starting with ... ENV=CREOPMA_FEATURE_NAME=

Add 10131 into parentheses.

The line should look like ... ENV=CREOPMA_FEATURE_NAME=PROE_some-name (10131)

Note:

• 10131 is code number of CFD_ADVANCED_PLUS_SET

[DS_9781704]

I did that and when I restarted creo I got the error: "Features Not Obtained: CFD_ADVANCED_PLUS_SET"

[DS_9781704]

Hi, does anyone know why im getting this error?

Hi @MartinHanak

Thanks for the suggestion. I just tried this on my linux installation through wine and it didn't work. Still complains that

Option CFD_ADVANCE_PLUS not ordered, please contact your sales representative.
You have not checked out the license option. Please click "File->Options->Licensing" and choose required option from "Refresh license list".

When I go into File->Options->Licensing I have the same problem as before. I can see the CFD_ADVANCED_PLUS_SET license, but checking it doesn't do anything. The error messages in the console seem to imply that creo is looking for CFD_BASIC, CFD_ADVANCE, and CFD_ADVANCE_PLUS, but not CFD_ADVANCED_PLUS_SET.

I'll try on my windows installation later if that'd be helpful. Though DS_9781704 seems to be having a similar problem. I don't see that Features Not Obtained error though.

Note that I tried this on a creo 7.0.2.0 Installation.

If I need to go back to 5.0, then I can also try that later. I think my license for that version might be expired though.

Hi,

if I could view your license file, I could tell you what's in it ...

[mtepermeister]

Is that something that I should just post online?

it does contain the lines:

######### Super-Module Bundle 10131 Definition ##########

# Creo Parametric Node Locked Option

#Feature Line Type = INCREMENT

#Feature Name = PROBUNDLE_10131

#Feature Version = 38.0

#Version = Creo 7.0

#Number of Copies = uncounted locked modules

#Supercede = Y

#Issue Date = 08-SEP-2020

#Expiration Date = 09-SEP-2022

#Node Locked Option = Creo Flow Analysis

#Node Locked Option = Creo Flow Analysis Plus

#Node Locked Option = Creo Flow Analysis Premium

Let me know if there's anything else I should look for or if it's safe to post somewhere/if I should redact anything when posted.

Thanks!

Hi,

I think you know that you posted comments, only. It would be better if I can see the whole license file. You can send it to m h a n a k @ c o g r a s . c z (remove spaces).

Also please upload/send your parametric.psf file.
