2 Creo sessions running in parallel (Connected to Windchill and local)

2 Creo sessions running in parallel (Connected to Windchill and local)

Is it possible to have 2 Creo sessions running in parallel with the 1st session connected to Windchill and the 2nd one working in local?

 

Creo Parametric 7.0.2.0

 

As soon as I connect one session, the other session is connected. It's exactly the same behaviour when I disconnect one of them from Windchill.

Hi,

YES it is possible.

 

INFO: By default Parametric\bin subdirectory contains parametric.psf file.

You can (for example):

1.] rename parametric.psf to parametric_with_WCH.psf edit

modify ... DESC=Creo Parametric (with WCH)

add line at the end of file ... ENV=PTC_WF_ROOT=C:\PTC_WF_ROOT_with_WCH

2.] copy parametric_with_WCH.psf to parametric_without_WCH.psf edit

modify ... DESC=Creo Parametric (without WCH)

add line at the end of file ... ENV=PTC_WF_ROOT=C:\PTC_WF_ROOT_without_WCH

 

When you start Creo using parametric.exe shortcut, dialog box appears showing two options:

Creo Parametric (with WCH)

Creo Parametric (without WCH)
