BRCM Configuration Variables
The following table lists the Bentley Raceway and Cable Management application specific variables that are used to configure the software and explain their purpose. Application variables are prefixed with "BRCM_" to set them apart from the standard MicroStation variables. Each configuration variable expects a valid value. An invalid value will not override a setting. You do not need to close and restart in order for the configuration variable change to take effect, unless noted
| Name | Operator | Value Type | Value (Typical) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BRCM_APPLICATION | = | String | BRCM | Short name of the application |

| BRCM_DB_ID | = | String | MYWORKSET | Prefix given to the SQL table names which typically matches the WorkSet name. |
| BRCM_DB_STATIONID | = | String | $(computername) | Unique work station ID. |
| BRCM_DIR | C:\Program Files\Bentley\Bentley Raceway and Cable Management CONNECT Edition\BRCM\ | Directory path | ||
| BRCM_FILE_UPDATE_OPTION | 1 | Controls how data is saved to the database when the design file is closed (0: no update, 1: Prompt to update, 2: silent update) | ||
| BRCM_IMODEL_PUBLISH_MODE | 0 | Not used in CONNECT Edition | ||
| BRCM_WS_EQUIPMENT | = | String | C:\ProgramData\Bentley\BRCM CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Standards\BRCM\std_dataset\equipment | Location of equipment data files |
| BRCM_WS_LANGUAGE | = | String | EN | Language Code for localized metadata files |
| BRCM_WS_METADATA | = | String | C:\ProgramData\Bentley\BRCM CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Standards\BRCM\std_dataset\metadata | Location of metadata files. |
| BRCM_WS_RACEWAY | = | String | C:\ProgramData\Bentley\BRCM CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Standards\BRCM\std_dataset\raceway | Location of raceway data files. |
| BRCM_WS_RACEWAY_TEMPLATES | = | String | C:\ProgramData\Bentley\BRCM CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Standards\BRCM\std_dataset\raceway\Templates | Location of raceway templates. |
| BRCM_WS_SCHEMAS | = | String | C:\ProgramData\Bentley\BRCM CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Standards\BRCM\std_dataset\schemas | Location of EC schema files. |
| BRCM_PW_SUBFOLDER_CPC | = | String | \Cable Pull Cards | Project subfolder for cable pull cards |
| BRCM_PW_SUBFOLDER_REPORTS | = | String | \Reports | Project subfolder for reports |
| BRCM_IMAGE_PATH | = | String | C:\ProgramData\Bentley\BRCM CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Worksets\BRCM_EU_EN\Standards\BRCM\Reports\Images | Location of the cable routing path images. |
| BRCM_OPM_CABLE_CONNECTION | = | String | ELECTRICAL_DEVICE_OFFSET | X,Y,Z Offset from the insertion point of the OPM equipment for electrical device. |
| BRCM_USER_DEFINED_CONFIGS | = | String | $(APPDATA)/Bentley/$(BRCM_APPLICATION)/userconfigs/ | As a BRCM administrator, you can now define custom ID, Raceway, and Duct Bank spacer configurations and adjust a configuration variable to control where these configurations are saved making it more convenient for you to control who has rights to modify them. The variable, BRCM_USER_DEFINED_CONFIGS by default is set to the local user's app data folder, but can be changed as you desire. |
