Error in Motion

Did you take a look at the log file (by typing mmwatch on a command prompt)?


That is an odd error. Are you using Mechanica or Mechanism for this? And what kind of results are you trying to get?
 
Thanks I dida Mechanism using Pins and all Servos are moving for Table, after this, I went in Mechanica (integrated mode) and click in Motion (my ideia is show how the assemblycomportaded it using a force in one extremety).
 
this error come up as a result of not finding the C compiler. MSVC++ is needed for mechanica Motion to run, whereas mechanism has its own compiler. You need to get the Microsoft MSVC ++ compiler installed (v6).
did you know that you can apply forces as well in mehanism dynamics Option (MDO)
 
I used forces by Mechanism, incluing G FORCE, but how I ll show the displacement using MDO? My initial ideia is insert the Bondary Condition in Mechanism and use the Motion only to show the displacement in the time. My idea is wrong? Thanks
 
Mechanica Motion is a retired product. The current product that supports mechanism is MDX (included in a Foundation license of Pro/E) and MDO, the module that will support dynamics (springs, dampers, forces, etc.). No one should still be using Mechanica Motion at this point.
 
I think that I dont expressed very well, I used the Wildfire2.0 to this, and I went in APLICATION>MECHANICA and after MOTION, the forces I inserted in MECHANISM. My analysy is only show the funcionality, not very elaborated. What tips you give me?
 
Don't use Mechanica Motion. Use Mechanism mode (Applications > Mechanism). You will need to define your joints in standard mode when creating the assembly. There are many tutorials and information available. Use Google.
