My Valve / Flange Database doesn't work in the MM units.

Also, Is there a way to open two CAESAR Models at the same time?

Thanks

Which V/F database are you accessing (set in the Configuration)?

No you can only open one CAESAR II model at a time.

My Piping Spec Std is Set to DIN; modeling my piping in mm. Valve & Flange set to Crane.VHD. I also tried CADWORX.VHD under the configuration Setup tab; When I try to use the V/F Database on the "Input" menu I get a message saying: No database values. ?

So, now I have to manually enter in the weights and lengths for the valves and flanges.

That should work fine - I just did it with a 150# flanged gate valve. It dropped in a lenght of 501.65mm and a weight of 1734.8N. (I used a nominal pipe diameter of 200mm.)

Is your CAESAR II installed locally or on a network drive? What Version are you using?

It is installed on my hard drive. I am using Caesar Verion 5.10.

Hmmm, I'll have to look into this. A few people reported this problem, but we can't reproduce it here.
