W1 | Connect to one or more Windchill repositories and view contents
Connect to one or more Windchill repositories (servers) in your organization by supplying the URL and your credentials. |
W2 | View contents of Windchill repositories View the contents of a Windchill repository, such as Products, Parts, Part Versions, Folders, and Baselines, directly from the Syndeia Dashboard. |
W3 | Search Windchill repositories
Search Windchill parts by specifying the containing Product, part number or/and name, and baseline criteria. View search results and drag-n-drop them to the SysML model. |
W4 | Create Reference connections between SysML model elements and Windchill elements
Drag-n-drop artifacts from any repository/tool to any Windchill repository element (e.g. product/part), or vice versa, to create a reference connection. A reference connection is the most basic form of traceability between artifacts and Windchill repository elements. A reference connection can be used to check if the version of the Windchill part has changed. |
W5 | Generate Windchill part structure and populate attributes from SysML block structure and value properties, and create Model Transform connections
Drag-n-drop a SysML block with value properties to a Windchill product or folder to generate a part structure (parts and part occurrences) with attribute values in Windchill. This also creates connections between the SysML blocks and Windchill part versions that can be used for compare and bi-directional sync operations. |
W6 | Generate SysML block structure with value properties from Windchill part structure and attributes, and create Model Transform connection
Drag-n-drop a Windchill part (or part version) with attributes to a SysML package to generate a block structure with value properties. This also creates connections between the SysML blocks and Windchill parts that can be used for compare and bi-directional sync operations. |
W7 | Compare SysML block structure with value properties and Windchill part structure with attributes
Invoke the Compare operation on connections between SysML blocks and Windchill parts to generate a difference table that shows the in-sync and out-of-sync aspects of the two structures. |
W8 | Sync SysML block structure with value properties → Windchill part structure with attributes
Invoke the Sync SysML → Target operation on connections between SysML blocks and Windchill parts to compare and update the Windchill part structure and attributes based on the SysML block structure and value properties. |
W9 | Sync Windchill part structure with attributes → SysML block structure with value properties
Invoke the Sync Target → SysML operation on connections between SysML blocks and Windchill parts to compare and update the SysML block structure based on the Windchill part structure, such as rename / addition / removal of part properties in SysML blocks. |
W10 | View details of Creo CAD models associated with EPM document
Expand EPM document versions in Windchill to view Creo models associated with them. Create reference connections between SysML model elements and Creo model elements. |
W11 | Generate SysML block structure from Creo models in Windchill
Drag-n-drop a Creo assembly model under an EPM document version to generate SysML block structure. This also brings mass properties (such as mass, volume, surface area, density, center-of-gravity, and bounding box dimensions) of Creo models to SysML, and provides the option to generate model attributes in SysML. It also creates a connection between SysML blocks and Creo models for downstream compare and sync operations. |
W12 | Connect existing SysML block and Windchill parts
Drag-n-drop an existing SysML block to a Windchill part (or vice versa) to create connections for downstream compare/sync. |
