AutoCAD Plant 3D: Databases explained

This book provides a deeper understanding of the AutoCAD P&ID and AutoCAD Plant 3D databases, as well as their structures, tables and views, to improve the handling of the drawing data. The book explains in detail what the different tables are used for. In addition, you will learn from practical examples on how you can optimally use the data.

Customized development of PlantTools

Due to different working methods and requirements, you often need custom functions for your planning software in plant engineering, which are either not found at all or not supported to the fullest extent in AutoCAD Plant 3D or the worldwide used auxalia PlantTools. That’s why we are developing our PlantTools together with you to fulfill your wishes.

auxalia Multi-User Licenses: How does it work?

A network license allows a number of users on the same TCP/IP network to share access to product licenses. The auxalia License Manager, installed on one or more servers, controls the distribution of licenses to users.

When you start an auxalia product, it requests a license from the license server through the network. If a license is available, ALM assigns a license to the computer, and the number of available licenses on the license server is reduced by one.

When you exit a product, the license returns to the ALM. If you run multiple sessions of an auxalia product on an individual computer, only one license is used. When the last session is closed, the license is released.
