Workflow: Restore Meridian Xref Integration in AutoCAD
Follow the steps below to restore Meridian Xref integration if it is not appearing in AutoCAD.
Step 1: Verify Meridian Integration Is Running
- Check the system tray (near the clock) for Meridian icons.
- If the icons are present, the integration is running—proceed to Step 4 if issues persist.
Step 2: Manually Start Meridian Integration
If the icons are not visible, manually launch the integration:
64-bit systems:
C:\Program Files\BC-Meridian\Program\AMHookTray.exe
32-bit systems:
C:\Program Files (x86)\BC-Meridian\Program\AMHookTrayU.exe
After launching, confirm the Meridian icons appear in the system tray.
Step 3: Reboot if Necessary
- If the icons still do not appear after manually starting the integration:
- Restart the computer
- Recheck the system tray after login
Step 4: Verify AutoCAD Compatibility
- Confirm that your installed version of AutoCAD is supported by your current version of Meridian.
- Running an unsupported version of AutoCAD may prevent the Xref integration from loading properly.
Step 5: Relaunch AutoCAD
- Close and reopen AutoCAD after completing the steps above.
- Confirm that the Meridian Xref integration is now available.
Expected Result
- Meridian icons appear in the system tray
- Meridian Xref integration is accessible within AutoCAD
