The Setup command is used to configure all features of the software and is found in the GTP WireWorks ribbon panel on the Add-Ins tab inside Revit. The command provides the user an interface to specify all settings for conduit run cleanup, electrical schematic, and wire pull calculator. Within the shared settings, there are separate tabs for settings specific to each main feature.
Setup File
The Setup File is where all Shared Settings, including feeder schedule import configurations, are stored. This file may be placed on a file server and shared by multiple users if desired. It is also acceptable to create separate setup files for different projects and change the active setup by simply specifying a different file and clicking OK.

The Setup File In this video we will be going over the WireWorks setup file. So, first thing's first. We need to draw some conduit elements in order to get Revit to build the conduit database to reference. Now we go to the Add-Ins tab, under the GTP WireWorks group, and click the setup button. The setup file is were all shared setting are stored. This file may be copied and placed locally or on a file server in order to be shared by multiple users. The local settings are stored in a file that is located on and specific to the user's computer. The setup file path is where you choose the setup file location. We click file, and can now browse to a different setup file which may have different shared settings. Once the setup file and the project are saved, this path data will be mapped to the project so that the correct settings are always associated to the correct project. Thank you for your time and we'll see you later. |
