Setup Section

The primary area of the Setup section provides commands for creating and manipulating tags and tag groups.

This page discusses:

Flyout for New Simulation State
Flyout for Create a beam sensor
Flyout for External Data Source
Flyout for Simulation part creation


	Existing Product or Resource Opens a catalog of resource items that you can use while laying out your factory.
	Create attachment Creates a link between two objects so that one object moves when the other moves.
	Manage attachments You can remove, edit, and update attachments.
	Mechanical Port Creates ports for resources.
	Control Equipment Creates a control device resource.
	Motion Controller Creates a controller on a resource reference or instance.
	Managing Motion Groups Create, read, update, and delete the motion groups of a control device.
	Applicative Profile Creates and manages applicative profiles associated with a robot.
	Jog Mechanism Manipulates the commands (or joints) of a mechanism.
	Set Tool Mounts a tool on a robot or rail.
	New Simulation State Takes snapshots of the states of each object within a simulation. See Flyout for New Simulation State
	Create a beam sensor See Flyout for Create a beam sensor
	External Data Source You can activate a resource in 3DEXPERIENCE to listen to a specified TCP/IP port and reflect the incoming joint values in the work area. See Flyout for External Data Source
	Simulation part creation Defines a part generator that creates simulation parts during simulation. See Flyout for Simulation part creation

Flyout for New Simulation State


	New Simulation State Takes snapshots of the states of each object within a simulation.
	Import Reference States Import simulation states that have been created on the reference products/resources instantiated into the current context. Click Import Reference States. On the tree, select the objects whose states you want to import. The states appear on the dialog box. Click OK.

Flyout for Create a beam sensor


	Create a beam sensor Creates a beam sensor for simulation part detection. See Creating a Beam Sensor.
	Plane sensor Defines a 2D geometry where objects crossing or contained within trigger logic signals. See Creating a Plane Sensor.
	Volume sensor Defines a volume where objects crossing or contained within trigger logic signals. See Creating a Volume Sensor

Flyout for External Data Source


	External Data Source You can activate a resource in 3DEXPERIENCE to listen to a specified TCP/IP port and reflect the incoming joint values in the work area.
	Define OPC server parameters

Flyout for Simulation part creation


	Simulation part creation Defines a part generator that creates simulation parts during simulation. See Sourcing and Sinking Workpieces during Simulation
	Simulation part transformation Defines a transformation on simulation parts created during simulation. See Destroy Workpieces
