No, the add-in is not installed automatically.
This means that the user must have Tekla Structures and RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9 installed on the computer.
Afterwards, you need to navigate to the corresponding folder:
- C:\Program Files\Dlubal\RFEM 6.xx\tools\TeklaAddIn
- C:\Program Files\Dlubal\RSTAB 9.xx\tools\TeklaAddIn
This folder contains the file "setup.exe". You can simply run it by double-clicking. The Tekla AddIn Installer will then open.
Once completed, the add-in is installed and the corresponding function is available in the Tekla ribbon.
You should also ensure that the option for the "Web service | SOAP" server has been activated in RFEM. This setting can be found in the RFEM "Options" menu under "Program Options".
