PV Adapter for SolidWorks 2010 HPGL 32 Bit only?

[krichardson]

Hello All,

We are trying to installthe PV adapter for SolidWorks on our Windchill 9.1 staging server. We have been told that the adapter can only be installed on a 32 bit machine if we want to publish using HPGL. It seems the hangup is finding a generic 64 bit generic HPGL driver.

The other alternative is to install on a external visualization server, but we are running into roadblocks on how to setup and communicate to the exteranl server.

Any help?

Windchill 9.1 M060 (in test / staging)

Pro/Engineer Wildfire 3.0

SolidWorks 2010

Thanks so much in advance! Kathy

Hi kathy,

What's the OS for the Windchill server ? One possibillty that can be thought of is to install a 32 bit vmware on the server machine haveing supported platform for the adaptor.

Please check the platform compatibility for adaptor here [Page 2/13] :http://www.ptc.com/WCMS/files/124988/en/CEV_Adapters_13_0_F000-20-May-gjj-1.pdf
