Project: HELiOS

CAE/CAD Interfaces

Besides an interface to MS Office, HELiOS supports interfaces to the following external software products:

• HiCAD
• AutoCAD
• Inventor
• Navisworks
• SOLIDWORKS
• EPLAN Electric

Please note:

• The interfaces can also be added subsequently via the HELiOS Interfaces tab of the HELiOS installation wizard. (in this case, select Change installation),

You can also add them via Windows: Select Start >Default programs > Programs and Features. Then, right-click HELiOS on the list and select Change. Further information can be found in the Installation Notes guide that is supplied with your installation DVD.

• When creating an interface between HELiOS and one of these CAD systems, please make sure that the Bit versions of HELiOS and the external software are identical: For example, an interface between 32Bit versions of external software products and a 64 Bit version of HELiOS 2014 is not possible!
