Project: Configuration Management

Transfer of DAT Files to the Configuration Editor

As of Version 1700, HiCAD enables a central configuration management via the Configuration Editor. This tool allows the creation of customer-specific configurations for a wide range of tasks, such as dimensioning, annotation, workshop drawing creation, fitting of vertical ladders etc. Once adjusted to company-specific requirements, these configurations can directly be used in HiCAD, without having to specify any further settings.

The goal of our further developments is a gradual transfer of the previously used system files with their adjustable parameter settings into the Configuration Editor, thus enabling a central and safe configuration management.

This transfer has already been realised for the following files:

• ALGPAR.DAT (as of 1800.0)
• BEMPAR.DAT (as of 1800.0)
• DIMENSIONING_SETTINGS.XML (as of 1800.0)
• STBEMPAR.DAT (as of 1801.0)
• KRPGEN.DAT (as of 1801.0)
• MASPAR.DAT (as of 1801.1)
• FITTABLE_SETTINGS.XML (as of 1801.0)
• TXTANSI.DAT (as of 1801.1)
• STABMPAR.DAT (as of 1802.0)
• AUBM3PAR.DAT (as of 1802.0)

• ALG3DPAR.DAT (as of 1901.0)

• FEATURE.DAT (as of 1901.0)
• LINPAR.DAT (as of 1901.0)
• SSWRITESTEP.DAT (as of 1901.0)

• PARAMASS.DAT (as of 2101)
• SSTINI3D.DAT (as of 2102)
• SSTINI.DAT (as of 2102)
• STB_PARAMETER.DAT (as of 2102)
• GRAPAR.DAT (as of 2201)
• KNTPAR.DAT (as of 2202)
• REF3D_ATTR_AKT.DAT (as of 2300)
