Installation and Configuration

 

From CD:

Insert the Solid-CIM 3D Installation DVD and it will start automatically. If the installation does not start automatically, navigate to D:\SETUP.EXE (where D: is the CD ROM drive letter) and double-click the SETUP.EXE file.

 

From Download:

To install Solid-CIM 3D from a download, simply double-click on the downloaded file to start the install.

 

When the installation program starts, the following screen will appear:

 

 

From here, all of the default selections have been made for you. We recommend that you leave the defaults, as it will be simpler for you later if technical support is needed and you need to know the locations of the Solid-CIM 3D files.

 

Select 'Next' to continue.

 

 

This is the license agreement for Solid-CIM 3D. Be sure you read the agreement. Selecting ‘I do not agree to the terms of this license agreement’ will allow you to exit the program without installing Solid-CIM 3D to your computer. Selecting 'Back' will return you to the previous window.

 

Select ‘I agree to the terms of this license agreement’ and 'Next' to continue.

 

The next screen will allow you to select any supported version to install the SCIM Connect feature.

 

 

Select the supported version you have already installed and 'Next' to continue.  

 

Note: AutoCAD is default and the Solid-CIM Connect is for additional programs if needed.

 

 

This screen will recap where Solid-CIM 3D is going to be installed to. Select 'Next' to continue.

 

 

The installer will start copying files to the necessary locations in this section of the install.

 

Once that is finished, the install of Solid-CIM 3D is completed and the following screen will appear:

 

 

Select 'Finish'.
