Setup
To enable a Configuration for your Revit model, navigate to the Model Checker Panel located on the BIM Interoperability Tools ribbon tab and click Setup. If no checkset file has been selected, you will immediately be prompted to load one.
This dialog gives you the option of selecting a specific local checkset XML by clicking the ellipsis button and navigating to the file, selecting a previously loaded checkset, opening one from the web hosted "Public Library", or opening a checkset from "My Library". Your BIM Manager can configure your Model Checker to locate the My Library location.
Once a checkset file is open, you are prompted with the Current Checkset dialog. This window gives you a preview of the checkset information and a tree with the specific headings, sections, and individual checks in the currently active checkset.
You can begin to customize the configuration check by enabling or disabling checks defined by the initial template selected. To enable or disable a check, click the "Check Box" icon(s) located in the browser at the left-hand side of the Configuration dialog box. If the icon appears grayed out, it is an indication that sub-sections exist for the particular check in question and one or more checks have been enabled.
Once you have configured your checkset appropriately, click Save to save your settings, or Save and Close to save your settings and close the dialog box. This will associate the checkset XML file and any modifications you made to the current Revit model.
Note that if you rename of move the checkset XML file, the Model Checker setup will need to be run again.
