Efficient Usage Tips
To ensure efficient and correct usage of the Autonomous HVAC CFD Connector plugin, it is recommended to create your design using the 'Autonomous_HVAC_CFD_Revit_template.rte' template file. This template file can be easily accessed at the specified location after installation. Additionally, it is important to have the Autodesk Data Exchange Connector for Revit installed for creating exchanges. For Revit 2024, the data exchange connector is currently in beta and can be found in the Collaborate tab once installed. However, if the data exchange connector is not available, you can still directly upload the .rvt file to your Autodesk Construction Cloud account after validating it with the Autonomous HVAC CFD Connector plugin.
