This section provides an overview for obtaining a license and installing VMAP and QUEST onto Windows systems. For information about installing other configurations, see the installation documentation on the CDs. No license is required to access the installation documentation. This page contains the following sections:
From D5R20 GA version onwards, we have deployed new Installer created using InstallAnywhere Software. Following are known issues and workarounds.
When the Product/License is installed, it will create a <PRODUCT>KeyFiles Directory under the installation directory. This directory has important key files (0 size) that are used by the Uninstaller. DO NOT remove/modify these files and/or this directory.
The uninstaller for the Product/License is located under <Installation Directory>/Uninstall<PRODUCT><VERSION> directory. Execute Uninstall<PRODUCT> program in this location to uninstall Product/License.
All DELMIA software is "protected" or "locked" and cannot be run on a computer until the licensing has been enabled and a special data file called the license.dat file is set up. This file contains encrypted information, which is used by DELMIA software products to determine which software programs are allowed to run on the computer and which options are available for that program.
Licensing keys are based on the i4target.exe result. This executable is supplied by your salesperson.
The license file for a Target ID contains a line that looks similar to the one shown. The <product name> will specify which DELMIA product is licensed for the workstation.
FEATURE <product name>:6048 deneb 517 15-dec-2006 0
ABCE4B44A8DD466EDFE6 VENDOR_STRING=256 HOSTID=TID=1BD3F7C ck=125
This line specifies which DELMIA product will be allowed to run on the computer and which options will be available for that product. A file named license.dat will be emailed to your point of contact via DELMIA's licensing department. If this is an upgrade or there are other DELMIA products on the computer, the license.dat file will already exist and the file must be updated.
The target ID of a computer can be obtained from CATIA Nodelock Key Management software in V5. Users can also download the LUM software appropriate for their operating system from the following website:
The LUM software can be used as shown:
i4target.exe –h displays help on usage
i4target.exe –O outputs a target ID in the following format:
i4target Version 4.6.8 Windows –LUM Target ID Tool

Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive. Setup should automatically launch. If it does not, select the Start button and click Run. Enter the following: D:\multi\setupwin.exe
Choose a product installation and follow the instructions that are shown on the screen.
NOTE: Wherever the term <product>.bat is used, the appropriate product name as shown below should be applied:
IGRIP | igrip.bat |
ENVISION | envision.bat |
UltraArc | uarc.bat |
UltraGRIP | ugrip.bat |
UltraPaint | upaint.bat |
UltraSpot | uspot.bat |
INSPECT | inspect.bat |
VNC | vnc.bat |
Copy the license.dat file into the directory C:\deneb\license. If this directory does not exist, create it.
The online documentation is provided as html. This allows the files to be viewed by any web browser. Edit the <product>.bat file located in the vmap directory and change the documentation variables to point to and start the preferred viewer. See above, also.
The following two lines show the default settings used in the <product>.bat file that is shipped on the DELMIA CD. This will start Netscape Communicator.
set VIEWER_LOC=C:\Progr~1\Netscape\Commun~1\Program\
set DENEB_DOC_VIEWER=%VIEWER_LOC%Netscape.exe
%DENEB_PROD_DIR%\docs\%DENEB_PRODUCT%_HOME\HOMEPAGE.html
The next two lines are an example of how to edit the <product>.bat file to run an installed version of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
set VIEWER_LOC=C:\Program Files\Plus!\Microsoft Internet\
set DENEB_DOC_VIEWER=%VIEWER_LOC%iexplore.exe
%DENEB_PROD_DIR%\docs\%DENEB_PRODUCT%_HOME\HOMEPAGE.html
Select the Start button, point to Programs and point to DELMIA (or double-click on the DELMIA icon installed on your desktop). Click on the licensed DELMIA software that you want to run.
If any error messages are generated, please refer to Appendix A in the installation documentation for possible reasons and corrections.
NOTE: Wherever the term <productlib> is used, the appropriate configuration library name as shown below should be applied:
IGRIP | SYSlib |
ENVISION | SYSlib |
UltraArc | UARClib |
UltraGRIP | UGRIPlib |
UltraPaint | UPAINTlib |
UltraSpot | USPOTlib |
INSPECT | INSPECTlib |
VNC | VNClib |
After installing the DELMIA product, user libraries should be created for storing projects. These project files should not be saved in <productlib> because this library is over-written with each subsequent product upgrade or version change. Please refer to the Configuration Files Guide, the Creating a Library and Config File section or see online HELP for SYS | FILE | MAKE LIB. At least one user library should be established.
