VTube-STEP Setup for Supravision Network Communications
Use the VTube-STEP Bender Output menu to setup and send new part data to a bender using Supravision Network protocol:
Go to the SV Network tab and choose the bender number and set the shared path where Supravision Network communications occurs.
- The Supravision Network protocol uses a bender number (from 1 to 99) to indicate which bender should pickup and use the Supravision file that is being saved by VTube-STEP to the file path in the network box.
- At the bender control, set the protocol to Supravision Network, set the bender number, set the path, and turn on communications if this is required.
Setup SolidWorks with Default Templates
The solution is to setup the Default TEMPLATE path in Tools / Options following these steps.
Step 2: Move the mouse to Tools and down to Options - Click on Options
Step 3: Click on Default Templates in the left column
Step 4: Choose the template files
Click on the ellipses buttons to setup the default path in these boxes. SolidWorks will suggest a file that already exists on the disk. Click on that file.
Fill in all three boxes with filenames.
Click on OK. SolidWorks is ready to receive VTube commands.
