Requirements

• Please note that all MULTICAx Plug-ins are on a dedicated media. You need this media to install them.
• Never modify data generated in V5: information could be lost and the MULTICAD Update could result in incorrect results.
• Part Number must be unique, all parts with the same name are considered as identical.

• On Windows, make sure the files to translate are not encrypted: push the Advanced button in the Properties dialog box of the file and uncheck the Encrypt contents to secure data option.
  
• The MULTICAx IGES Plug-in allows you to import IGES native data (part models).
  This import converts  IGES part geometry into the CATIA Graphical Representation (CGR) or CATPart formats, which renders it readable by V5. 
• You can perform this import interactively or from the command line.
• Windows 64 bits OS is supported.
• Aix 64 bits OS is supported.

Protocols and attributes

For conversions, the following protocols or attributes apply:

• The IGES part files must have the .igs extension
•  see the IGES import section in the Data Exchange Interfaces User's Guide documentation for more information. 

Licensing requirements

*.igs  extension is not natively supported in V5, therefore, the licenses DGL (ENOVIA PORTAL, CATIA) or MGP (DELMIA) are required to access this extension.
