On CAEN lab Windows hosts, you will find Ansoft software within the "MCAD ECAD..." start menu entry.

Under /usr/caen/bin (which should be in your search path) are wrapper scripts for the many but not all Ansoft applications. These scripts set the proper environment variables for you and launch the application. Scripts include:
First, determine the install directory of the version you'll be using. Then set the following environment variables in a small set-up file that you source prior to running the application (e.g. create ansoft_setup, then at a shell prompt run "source ansoft_setup" to set the environment). Alternatively you could place these lines in your .cshrc, meaning that any new shell will take on these environment variables. You may not want to do this if you're new to unix since debugging a mistake in your .cshrc might be frustrating. Replace instdir with the correct path.
Note: Use these same techniques to set up other tools on the CAEN network that don't have wrapper scripts under /usr/caen/bin.
