How to setup TheModus Professional so it does not make use of UOL content when generating Fitting solutions?


Last modified on: 25 November 2021

Problem:

When generating a Fitting Solution (Elbow, T and so on) An error message related to not being able to make a family/Familt-type "Can't make type "NLRS_<familyname>:<type name>" is shown."

Cause:

Default TheModus Professional is set to make use of available fitting from UOL to generate the fitting solution.

This function requires a 2BA subscription/license.

If the 2BA subscription/license is not available make following changes to TheModus:


Solution:

  1. Start Revit 20xx
  2. Activate the 'Cadac Revit' Ribbontab
  3. Click 'General '
  4. In the fold-menu choose 'Settings'
  5. Click [ Manage Settings ]
  6. Select the line "Use UOL content in TheModus processes"
  7. Click ▼ ] in the field 'Value'
  8. Select the value 'false'
  9. Click [ CLOSE ]
  10. Click [ Save ]Generating Fitting Solutions will now only use TheModus families.
