Framing Elements
Export Frame – gives the ability to choose what layers of the assembly you wish to export:
All Frame – exports the whole framed assembly, including all the layers and all the elements.
Main Frame – only exports the main load-bearing section of the assembly (Studs, Plates, Blockings/Noggings, Braces, etc.)
Main Frame and External Layers – exports the main frame as well as all the remaining layers to the exterior side of the wall.
Main Frame and External Layers w/o siding - exports the main frame as well as all the remaining layers to the exterior side of the wall but excludes Siding boards.
Main Frame and Internal Layers - exports the main frame as well as all the remaining layers to the interior side of the wall.
Main Frame and Internal Layers w/o siding - Exports the main frame as well as all the remaining layers to the interior side of the wall but excludes siding elements.
Minimal Layer Thickness – allows excluding assembly layers by specifying minimal layer thickness. If left at zero – all layers will be exported.
Export Flipped – flips assembly by Z axis (yellow line) in the export. The interior side in Revit () becomes the exterior side in the export.
Unticked (default) – assembly is exported the way it looks in Revit.
Ticked - assembly is going to flip by Z axis in the export.
Export Inverted – geometrically changes nothing in the export, but the commands used for describing paneling and shuttering receive inverted commands:
Unticked (default) – PLI and SLI commands will be used for layers running from the main frame to the external side (), and PLA, SLA for layers on the internal side ().
Ticked - PLI and SLI commands will be used for layers running from the main frame to the internal side () and PLA, SLA for layers on the external side ().
Export with Modules – if the framed assembly has any prefabricated components, these components are going to be defined with MODULE command:
Ticked (default) - MODULE command will be used.
Unticked – prefabricated components are going to be treated as any other part of the frame and MODULE command will not be used.
Export Rotated – lays the whole assembly on the Revit’s right side () in the export:
Unticked (default) – assembly is exported the way it looks in Revit
Ticked - assembly is going to rotate 90 degrees clockwise in the export
Export Rotated 180 – lays the whole assembly on the Revit’s top side () in the export:
Unticked (default) – assembly is exported the way it looks in Revit
Ticked – assembly is exported rotated 180 degrees
Collect Elements by – when two or more framing assemblies are merged using “Add Frames or Assemblies to Assembly” tool, you have the option to export frames separated to pre-merged assemblies or export it as a new merged assembly:
Host (default) – frame assemblies are exported individually, ignoring merging and resulting in separate files being generated.
Assembly – the whole merged frame assembly is exported as one resulting in one file being generated.
Frame Translation – moves the origin point of the assembly from the default bottom left corner position to the top right corner position:
No translation - the origin point stays at the bottom left corner of the assembly
Down and to Left - origin point moves to the top right corner of the assembly
Split to Separate Files by – allows you to divide assemblies to separate files based on the chosen parameter values.
Marking Control Code – machine-specific code to control and customize various aspects of how the processing is supposed to be performed.
Seat Cut Command Type – lets you choose what kind of drilling command should be used for seat cuts:
BOx (default) – represents commands BOZ, BOY and BOX. These commands were used for drilling up to and including WUP interface version 3.3.
PAF/PP – from WUP interface version 3.4, countersinking operations, including drilling use this command
Drill Command Type (xxx) for max Diameter (xxx) – lets you choose what drilling command is to be used for holes up the diameter inputted:
BOx (default) – represents commands BOZ, BOY and BOX. These commands were used for drilling up to and including WUP interface version 3.3.
PAF/MP – from WUP interface version 3.4, countersinking operations, including drilling use this command
Drill Command Type for larger Diameter holes – lets you choose what kind of drilling command is to be used for holes exceeding the maximum diameter specified in Drill Command Type (xxx) for max Diameter (xxx) option:
BOx – represents commands BOZ, BOY and BOX. These commands were used for drilling up to and including WUP interface version 3.3.
PAF/MP – from WUP interface version 3.4, countersinking operations, including drilling use this command.
Top Plate Support – lets you choose what processing command should be used to process top plate support elements:
LS – Longitudinal Stud command.
EBT – Built-in part command.
Export Additional Layers as – lets you choose what kind of commands are used for all layers that are not main frame and sheathing:
SLx (default) – SLI0-10 and SLA0-10 commands will be used with the proper layer number assigned depending on layer location and if Export Inverted option is chosen.
PLx – PLI0-10 and PLA0-10 commands will be used with the proper layer number assigned depending on layer location and if Export Inverted option is chosen.
PLx except Siding - PLI0-10 and PLA0-10 commands will be used with the proper layer number assigned depending on layer location and if Export Inverted option is chosen, excluding Siding elements. They will be exported with the default SLx command instead.
Start Exterior Layer Numbering with – lets you choose the starting number for layers for SLA and PLA commands (e.g., if 3 is written, then the first layer will start with command SLA3)
Start Interior Layer Numbering with – lets you choose the starting number for layers for SLI and PLI commands (e.g., if 3 is written then the first layer will start with command SLI3)
One Bottom Plate – in case the CNC machine can only handle one bottom plate, this option can be used:
Unticked (default) – all the bottom plates are designated with UG processing (Bottom Plate)
Ticked – only the first bottom plate that is in contact with the studs is designated as UG (Bottom Plate), all the other bottom plates receive LS processing (Longitudinal Stud)
One Top Plate – in case the CNC machine can only handle one top plate, this option can be used:
Unticked (default) – all the bottom plates are designated with OG processing (Top Plate)
Ticked – only the first bottom plate that is in contact with the studs is designated as OG (Top Plate), all the other bottom plates receive LS processing (Longitudinal Stud)
Export Frames
Origin Point – in case your main frame doesn’t start from the bottom of the Revit wall due to offset or the bottom plate being placed separately, this option can be used to adjust the frame origin point:
by Host (default) – the frame will have its origin point at the bottom corner of the Revit host element (wall, floor, roof).
by Elements – the frame will have its origin point at the bottom corner of where the main frame of the assembly starts (e.g., first bottom plate's left corner).
Order Hosts by –
Export Details
Export Details – exports detail element families hosted on framing elements
Detail Orientation by View –
Detail Mark – lets you choose a parameter which value will be used as a mark for detail elements
