How to turn on FEAF 2 and load the Reference Models
System Architect provides support for the FEAF 2.0 Reference Models within the FEA Reference Model paid add-on.
FEAF 2 selection
If you have the FEA Reference Model paid add-on, you are able to toggle on the FEAF 2 selection for an encyclopedia as follows:
1 Select Tools > Customize Method Support > Encyclopedia Configuration.
2 In the System Architect Property Configuration dialog, toggle on FEAF 2, then save and close the dialog.
Note FEAF 2 is integrated with DoDAF 2 and TOGAF 9 – you can toggle on either of those other frameworks when working with FEAF 2.
3 Reopen the encyclopedia for the changes to take affect (File > Open Encyclopedia).
