Applies To Product(s): AutoPIPE, Version(s): 2004, XM, & V8i Environment: N/A Area: Error message Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group Problem: The following occurs when trying to run an analysis: --------------------------- Error --------------------------- E801-4: Zero length element --------------------------- OK --------------------------- How to resolve this issue? Solution: The problem is that AutoPIPE is seeing a pipe length = 0.00. At some point in the model there are 2 node points are essentially occupying the same point in space. Thus producing this error message. However, where are these 2 node points? There are 2 popular approaches to finding these node points. Approach #1: 1. In the Input grid select the points tab: 2. Double click on the column heading "Length". 3. Search for non-grayed out cells, example A01. 4. Place grid back into original order by double clicking the top Left corner cell. 5. Review the issue an determine the best course of action. Approach #2: Another common location for this error is about a bend component. A bend is comprised of 4 node points: 1. Near, 2. Far, 3. Mid, 4. TIP. IF an AutoPIPE component is placed directly atop the Bend's Near or Far node points this message will appear. Again, best course of action is to move the AutoPIPE component or node point a short distance away from the Bend's Near and Far locations There are a couple of trick to finding these locations. 1. Select All bends in the model and look for components / node points that are directly atop the bend's near or far points. Example: 2. Look at the Bend tab of the input grids to see what bend radius are used in the model, calculate the bend radius distance, sort the Points tab based on length calculated, and review each occurrence where the length equaled the bend radius. Example: Bend radius = Long, pipe size is 6" or 8" dia, bend radius for long bend is 1.5 times nominal pipe OD., 6x1.5 = 9", 8x1.5 = 12", search points tab for 9" and 12", review each location for potential issues. Question: How to fix these issues when they occur: Example #1: In this model only, there was a segment that has Zero Length, best option in this case was to delete the entire segment. Using AutoPIPE commands, Select Segment (ex. C) and press Delete button to delete it from the model. Example #2 : In another scenario the problem may be fixed by 1 of 2 additional methods 1. Removing the offending node point Example: node point C01 is atop of Bend C02N node point. Delete C01 if not required OR 2. If 2 node points are directly atop one another in 3D space, insert a small distance between the 2 node points to prevent this message from being displayed. (ex. length greater than 0.01"). Example: the reducer small end point is directly atop of the Bend's Far (ex. B33F) node point. Add a small distance more between these 2 components. Note: This scenario occurred after importing a PXF model. Upon closer inspection of the original model in OpenPLANT, it was determined that there was a very small pipe run = 0.026 inches. Sometimes a completely review the original model looking for such modeling errors helps when translating the model to AutoPIPE.

Product activation is not the same as checking out a license. This document describes how to configure AutoPIPE Vessel for activation. After initial configuration, AutoPIPE Vessel automatically and transparently tries to activate each time it runs, and runs unconstrained for a period of 30 days after its last successful activation. However, if activation is unsuccessful for a period of 30 days, AutoPIPE Vessel will not start until it is activated again. Activating a product using the Product Activation Wizard The Product Activation Wizard is designed to step users through the product activation process. After a product is installed, you must obtain a license and then activate that license. Obtaining the license alone is not enough to complete the process. This wizard eliminates the confusion and makes it clear that obtaining a license and activating a product are two essential steps. The Product Activation Wizard opens automatically (unless the "Activate product using Bentley License Tool" check box is turned off) at the end of the product installation process. See the AutoPIPE Vessel Quick Start Guide for more information on installing AutoPIPE Vessel. The first screen of the Product Activation Wizard offers four product activation options: SELECT subscribers with a deployed (local) SELECT Server SELECT subscribers activating against a hosted (Bentley) SELECT Server Non-SELECT users Evaluation Only - No license information The wizard steps you through the activation process based on the options selected. SELECT subscribers with a deployed (local) SELECT Server If you are activating against a local SELECT Server, you must provide the proper Server Name and Activation Key. The Server Name and Activation Key, along with any proxy configuration information, can be obtained from your Site Administrator. Enter the name of the server in the Server Name field. Enter the site activation key in the Site Activation Key field. If you are using HTTPS, enable the HTTPS (SSL) check box. If you are using a Proxy server to connect to the hosted SELECT Server, click the Proxy button and fill in the Proxy Server information then click OK. Click Test Connection to verify the connection to the SELECT Server. Click Next. The Wizard Selections dialog box displays the information provided on the previous dialog boxes. Review the information and click Finish to activate the product. SELECT subscribers activating against a hosted (Bentley) SELECT Server If you are activating against a hosted (Bentley) SELECT Server, the Server Name is pre-populated but you must provide the proper Activation Key provided by the Bentley Sales Support Center . Enter the site activation key in the Site Activation Key field. If you are using HTTPS, enable the HTTPS (SSL) check box. If you are using a Proxy server to connect to the hosted SELECT Server, click the Proxy button and fill in the Proxy Server information then click OK. Click Test Connection to verify the connection to the SELECT Server. Click Next. The Wizard Selections dialog box displays the information provided on the previous dialog boxes. Review the information and click Finish to activate the product. NON-SELECT user If you are not a Bentley SELECT subscriber and you are activating AutoPIPE Vessel, you are presented with three options: I have a license file ready to import I have an activation key I do not have any license information a. I have a license file ready to import Enter the path to your license file (or Browse to the location of your license file) in the License File field. Click Next. The Wizard Selections dialog box displays the information provided on the previous dialog boxes. Review the information and click Finish to activate the product. b. I have an activation key Enter the site activation key in the Site Activation Key field. If you are using HTTPS, enable the HTTPS (SSL) check box. If you are using a Proxy server to connect to the hosted SELECT Server, click the Proxy button and fill in the Proxy Server information then click OK.

Une fois un produit installé, vous devez vous procurer une licence, puis activer cette dernière. N'obtenir que la licence n'est pas suffisant pour mener à bien la procédure. Cet assistant dissipe toute confusion et explique clairement que l'obtention d'une licence et l'activation d'un logiciel constituent deux étapes fondamentales. L'assistant d'activation de produit s'ouvre automatiquement (à moins que la case « Afficher les paramètres de licence au démarrage » ne soit décochée) à la fin de la procédure d'installation du logiciel. Pour plus de précisions sur l'installation, reportez-vous au guide de démarrage rapide d'AutoPIPE Vessel. Le premier écran de l'assistant d'activation de produit propose quatre options d'activation : Abonnés SELECT avec un serveur SELECT Server déployé (local) Abonnés SELECT activant par rapport à un serveur SELECT Server hébergé (Bentley) Utilisateurs non SELECT Évaluation seulement ; aucune information de licence En fonction des options sélectionnées, l'assistant vous guide pas à pas au cours de la procédure d'activation. Abonnés SELECT avec un serveur SELECT Server déployé (local) Si vous activez par rapport à un serveur SELECT Server local, vous devez indiquer le nom de serveur et la clé d'activation corrects. Vous pouvez vous procurer le nom du serveur et la clé d'activation, de même que toute information de configuration de proxy, auprès de votre administrateur de site. Saisissez le nom du serveur dans le champ Nom du serveur. Saisissez la clé d'activation de site dans le champ Clé d'activation de site. Si vous utilisez HTTPS, cochez la case HTTPS (SSL). Si vous utilisez un serveur proxy pour vous connecter au serveur SELECT Server hébergé, cliquez sur le bouton Proxy, renseignez les informations sur le serveur proxy et cliquez sur OK. Cliquez sur Tester connexion pour vérifier la connexion au serveur SELECT Server. Cliquez sur Suivant.

Активация продукта и выдача лицензии — это не одно и то же. В настоящем документе описывается, как сконфигурировать AutoPIPE Vessel для активации. После начального конфигурирования ПО AutoPIPE Vessel автоматически и явным образом пытается выполнить активацию каждый раз при его запуске и запускается без ограничений в течение 30 дней после своей последней успешной активации. Однако если в течение 30 дней не была выполнена успешная активация продукта, ПО AutoPIPE Vessel не запустится до тех пор, пока снова не будет активировано. Активация продукта с помощью мастера активации продукта Мастер активации продукта предназначается для поэтапного выполнения активации продукта пользователями. После установки продукта необходимо получить лицензию, после чего ее активировать. Простое получение лицензии оказывается недостаточным для завершения данного процесса. Этот мастер исключает недоразумения и помогает понять, что получение лицензии и активация продукта представляют собой два отдельных этапа. Мастер активации продукта открывается автоматически (если только не был снят флажок «Активировать продукт с помощью инструмента лицензий Bentley») в конце процесса установки продукта. Для получения дополнительных сведений по установке AutoPIPE Vessel см. краткое практическое руководство по AutoPIPE Vessel.

Applies To Product(s): AutoPIPE Version(s): ALL Environment: N/A Area: Import / Export Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group Date Logged & Current Version Feb. 2016 10.00.00.10 Problem: What are the concerns with saving an AutoPIPE model as an AutoPIPE Batch (*.NTL) file and then opening that *.NTL file in AutoPIPE? TR Number: none Product: AutoPIPE Version: all Area: General Problem ID#: 79405 Solution: The process of saving an AutoPIPE model (*.DAT) file to an AutoPIPE Batch (*.NTL) file, and then opening the *.NTL file in AutoPIPE to create a new *.DAT file is referred to by us as "round tripping a model" Information is saved to the AutoPIPE model *.DAT file in a database format with very specific settings. The AutoPIPE BATCH file (*.NTL) is data written out from the database into another specific formatted text file (see AutoPIPE help for "Command Card Reference" details about how each component is formatted in the NTL file). When the NTL file is opened in AutoPIPE, the model is created based on the NTL file settings. Because of translating data from DAT to NTL back to DAT, any missing data will assume its default settings and all data referenced to a library file is refreshed. This is why it is VERY VERY IMPORTANT to follow this procedure: 1. Open original AutoPIPE model DAT file (Test.DAT) 2. Create a complete Model Input listing report with all sub reports enabled (ex. Test.RPT). 3. Run an analysis. 4. Select Results> Output report> ensure all sub reports are checked ON,(except “Sort Stresses” should be turned OFF), save Test.OUT. 5. Select File> Save As > AutoPIPE Batch (TEST-1.NTL) 6. Select File> Open> AutoPIPE batch (*.NTL)> select file (ex.Test-1.NTL) 7. READ and understand any reports that is automatically displayed (ex. CHK, MSG, etc..) 8. Repeat Steps 2-4, save files as Test-1.RPT and Test-1.OUT. 9. Use an application (i.e. Ultra Compare, Beyond Compare (free on internet)) to compare both Test.OUT and Test-1.OUT to CLEARLY see the differences. 10. IN MOST CASES, the new DAT file will need to be updated to match the original DAT file. Again, it is very important to perform this process of file comparison and/or to thoroughly review the new DAT file to be sure of model settings. Note: 1. Repeatedly, round tripping a model may reset some items to their default settings, therefore check all settings in the model especially under Tools> Model Options> General, Edit, and Results are correct. 2. Because this process rewrites the model database, this process can be used to filter / fix a model that has some peculiar unexplained issues occurring. 3. Another method to Filter / Fix a model is to create a new model with the same General model options as the original affected model. Than IMPORT the affected model into the new model.

Applies To Product(s): AutoPIPE Version(s): ALL Environment: N/A Area: Exporting Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group Date Logged & Current Version Feb. 2016 10.00.00.10 Problem: When AutoPIPE exports an AutoPIPE Batch (NTL) file the following is displayed: Bentley AutoPIPE Application has stopped working Windows is checking for a solution to the problem... then the following is displayed: Bentley AutoPIPE Application has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.[Close program] button Answer: Answer #1: The model contains an invalid value (zero) for pointer to buried pipe options Solution: A. Change piping code from B31.3 to B31.1 because buried pipe option is not available in B31.3 B. Open Buried Pipe Options dialog (Tools> Model Options > Buried Pipe Result Options) and Press Ok so that buried pipe options pointer will be updated Answer #2: The analysis set has a fluid density factor that is blank. Solution: A. Open the analysis set, Load> Analysis set. B. Confirm that all Fluid Density Factors are not blank but have a valid value. Answer #3 The soil name is changes at a bend's Near node point. Solution: Soil property name should be the same around a bend or changes name only at the elbow's Far node point. Answer #4: Model has Valve with "Actuator Auto" turned off. Solution: for troubleshooting purpose set Valve with "Actuator Auto" turned ON. Answer #5: Program may terminate abnormally if invalid pipe found on NTL round trip Solution: Logged under CAE-TR-10662, to be added to newer version of the program (Corrected Version: 9.6 and higher). Program calculates bend far point coordinates based on bend point to the succeeding point. On NTL import, program checks if the bend point and succeeding point offset difference is almost equal to zero then it deletes the succeeding point. Similar method is followed for bend point and preceding point to get the bend near point coordinates.On deletion of point, it also deletes responding guid. But guids were not created yet for imported NTL. Therefore program crashes. See Also Export AutoPIPE Batch (NTL) Bentley AutoPIPE
