Supported mappings and their limits

Lmits

For the adapter to find the Catia instance, both pieces of software need to be launch with the same level of user privilege.

Table : Supported Parameters and their supported transfer direction.

The Table shows all parameters that are currently supported by the adapter now. The Catia short name column may contains the value “NA“: not applicable, meaning that the corresponding parameter is not listed with the usual Catia parameter therefore its short name does not matter. For the adapter to be able to use any of these parameters, they first need to be created in the Hub.
