Special Files used by Simcenter Amesim Run

Pack and Unpack facility

Some systems use external information like images, customized objects, supercomponents or other objects. If you want to send a complete system to a colleague, you may have problems to send separate files joined to the system. Simcenter Amesim Run provides the Pack/Unpack facility to help you gathering all necessary information so that your colleagues can efficiently run the system.

Simcenter Amesim Run creates a .pck file containing all the elements of the system. Then, it is very easy to send one file instead of a large quantity of objects.

When your colleague receives the .pck file, he just has to unpack the file to be able to use the system.

To pack a .ame file and all connected objects, use the menu item File > Pack. Simcenter Amesim Run provides a wizard to help you during the process.

To unpack a file, use the File > Open menu. See Pack and Unpack for more information.
