Gear AT initialization

You can configure the setup of Gear AT product for your convenience. When the plugin is loaded, configuration file Gear_AT_ini.cmd is automatically imported from the Adams_Install_Dir/gear_at directory. You can use this file to set your personal preferences such as:
FE preprocessor
FE Mesh viewer
Request activity
Default damping ratio of a gear flex body (Full Flex Gear approach)
Maximum number of gear elements
Background color
Solver settings
Relative paths for property files
Backup of property files
Nastran installation path to use with Gear AT preprocessing
Or any other of your choice. The file could be placed in any of following location and is read in that order so the last one takes preference:
Plugin installation directory - Adams_Install_Dir/gear_at
Home directory
Working directory
