AutoCAD Based Collaborate (Ribbon/Toolbar/Location)

Button: Create Revit Mep Link To System Model Error Type: Unexpected error

Description:

TWO SYMPTOMS:

Drawing fittings and pipe look disjointed, like that time an alien team of scientists were performing out-of-phase medical experiments on the Voyager crew.

Or, on the way into Revit, you get this error;

Error (must be addressed in order to continue)

Revit has experienced an unexpected error.  The operation has been cancelled to protect your project from corruption

Deleted element

When reporting the error, you may see this;

Hashtable head_table, Hashtable FLXpipeTable, List '1 listFtgs, flexpipes PipeTypeInfo ptInfo

Solutions:

Cause:

In AutoCAD, the drawing is outside of the Revit bounds.

Solution:

Revit has a bounds radius of around 20 miles (?) from 0,0.  The AutoCAD drawing trying to be converted to Revit was drawn 125 miles away from 0,0

 

You'll have to move your AutoCAD drawing closer to 0,0,0, make a Revit model, and if your working Revit model is really 25+ miles away from 0,0,0, move your model back out again.
