Batch Run Procedure

A sample zip file and sample batch script are provided in this location of the installation:

<installationdir>\hwdesktop\utility\nvh\fin\batch_scripts\ghn_scripts.

The batch script is divided into sections, and you must specify the input parameters required. Each line of the script must end with a semicolon symbol, “;”. The Pack and Go option is also supported.

For Windows, set the current directory to C:\Users\user_name:
"installationdir/hwdesktop/hwx/bin/win64/runhwx.exe" -client HyperWorksDesktop -plugin HyperworksNvh -profile HyperworksNvh -l en -b -tcl
"installationdir/hwdesktop/utility/nvh/fin/batch_scripts/ghn_scripts/BatchScript_ExteriorResult.tbc" “directory/Batch_Script_Exteriror_Result.txt"
For Linux and Linux server, set the current directory to /stage/user_name in the command prompt, followed by this command:
"installationdir/altair/scripts/hwx" -client HyperWorksDesktop -plugin HyperworksNvh -profile HyperworksNvh -l en -b -tcl
"installationdir/hwdesktop/utility/nvh/fin/batch_scripts/ghn_scripts/BatchScript_ExteriorResult.tbc" “directory/Batch_Script_Exteriror_Result.txt"
