Getting Help

ANSYS Technical Support

To contact ANSYS technical support staff in your geographical area, please log on to the ANSYS corporate website, https://www1.ansys.com. You can also contact your ANSYS EM account manager in order to obtain this information.

E-mail can work well for technical support. All ANSYS EM software files are ASCII text and can be sent conveniently by e-mail. When reporting difficulties, it is extremely helpful to include very specific information about what steps were taken or what stages the simulation reached. This allows more rapid and effective debugging.
