Revision Date: July 7, 2020
Objectives
The new learning objective of this exercise is to generate a block structure in a Rhapsody SysML model from a product structure in Windchill.
Preparation
This exercise assumes the student has
- IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.2 installed correctly on his or her machine with a valid license for use, and
- Syndeia 3.3 installed as a plugin for Rhapsody with a valid license for use
- Syndeia Windchill interface, correctly installed with a valid license for user.
- A Windchill repository network connection in the Syndeia Repository Manager
The specific instructions in this example use a Windchill repository connection named Windchill 11.1 @ Intercax, but the user can use any Windchill repository they have available. It is generally advisable to carry out these exercises in a non-production repository, a "sandbox", set up for training and practice purposes.

- In this exercise, we will continue from the work created in Exercise 4.2.
- Create an empty package Windchill_Tutorial Part 2 in the SysML model. Launch the Syndeia dashboard from this package (close it first if it is still open from the previous exercise). Using the Connection Manager on the Syndeia dashboard, as shown in Figure 2, set the Connection Type to Model Transform and drag the UAV (A.4) part from the repository side onto the empty SysML package on the left. Click Yes on the dialog box window to confirm (Figure 3).

- After the part generation is complete, the dashboard should appear similar to Figure 5.

- Confirm that Rhapsody displays the same new part structure in the previously empty package Windchill_Tutorial Part 2, including the value property Phase.String in each of the new SysML blocks created. Save the revised SysML model.
