Abaqus Analysis

Hi everyone,
i'm currently trying to analyse a 2D planar wire truss
system undergoing a temperature rise to measure the level
of expansion of the truss sides in abaqus 6.9. however
when submitting the job for analysis i get the error
message: "DEGREE OF FREEDOM 11 AND AT LEAST ONE OF
DEGREES OF FREEDOM 1 THRU 6 MUST BE ACTIVE IN THE MODEL
FOR *COUPLED TEMP-DISP. CHECK THE PROCEDURE AND ELEMENT
TYPES USED IN THIS MODEL."

can anyone help with how this can be resolved? is a
"coupled temp- displacement" the correct step to be using
for a simple rise in temperature? i've tried changing the
element type in the mesh to truss but this hasn't helped.

any replies would be greatly appreciated.
