System requirements
The Abaqus component must fulfill the following system and software requirements:
- Operating system
- Windows 64-bit operating system.
- Abaqus/CAE release
- Supported release of Abaqus
- Isight release
- Isight 5.7 or later.
- CATIA V5 release
- Supported version of CATIA V5.
- Associative interface release
- CATIA V5 Associative Interface plug-in for the installed supported release of CATIA V5.
General Limitations
- CATIA V5 must not be running on your computer when Isight executes the process flow; otherwise, updating the geometry parameters in Abaqus/CAE and CATIA V5 will fail.
- If you previously ran a CATIA V5 session with undocked toolbars, those same toolbars appear when the Abaqus component launches CATIA V5 in background mode.
