Running BathCAD for the First Time

Now you're ready to start BathCAD for the first time and to activate your licence. To start BathCAD, double click on the desktop shortcut icon.

After a couple of seconds the Loading Screen will appear:

Company Details 

As this is the first time using the program, when BathCAD has loaded, and before entering the design screen, you will be prompted to enter your business details. You will not see this screen again:

After entering your company details click OK.

Click OK.

The next screen displayed will be the main BathCAD design area.

If in the future you relocate your business or change Company name, you may want to edit your company details in your BathCAD system. To do so, please click the 'Special' menu then 'Edit Global ini'.

Select the 'ArtiCAD Customer' tab.

Click 'Save' to store your changes.

Activating your BathCAD licence 
To allow you to get started without interruption, your system licence has already been activated as a temporary '7 day trial' system until you activate your licence permanently. If you fail to activate your system within 7 days, you will no longer be able to use BathCAD until you enter the correct activation code.

You will have been sent a nineteen-digit licence activation code. To activate your ArtiCAD licence, click 'File' - 'Activate'.

Type your activation code into the 'Product Key' box and click the 'Activate' button.

If you require additional BathCAD licences, please contact your local ArtiCAD Sales Team
