If you have a standalone license, you will need to activate SOLIDWORKS PCB 2022 after installing. Either license type can be used with either configuration type. The license type can be standalone or client-server (this guide is for the standalone configuration).

Note that the license type differs from the installation configuration type, which can be standalone or shared. SOLIDWORKS PCB 2022 can be used with standalone and network licenses. Note that sales and support for Altium Designer are not provided by Hawk Ridge Systems or SOLIDWORKS. When using SOLIDWORKS PCB Connector, the PCB design tools are provided by Altium Designer, while the 3D collaboration tools are provided by SOLIDWORKS 3D. Changes to a PCB design can be made in either Altium Designer or SOLIDWORKS 3D then synchronized between the two programs, via the SOLIDWORKS PCB Connector. SOLIDWORKS PCB Connector is a tool that integrates Altium Designer with SOLIDWORKS 3D to allow collaboration between electrical and mechanical designers. This document is only to be distributed and used by Hawk Ridge Systems customers. If you have any technical issues with SolidWorks, please contact Hawk Ridge Systems technical support. Please contact Hawk Ridge Systems Technical Support if you are unsure of your SOLIDWORKS PCB configuration type. SOLIDWORKS PCB Connector can be used in either a standalone or client-server installation configuration. SOLIDWORKS PCB Connector works alongside Altium Designer to facilitate the ECAD-to-MCAD collaboration process. This guide gives instructions for installing SOLIDWORKS PCB Connector 2022.
