Montecarlo simulation not starting in ADE-XL

Hi,

I have designed a schematic, which I simulated in ADEL version IC6.1.6-64b.500.8

While running montecarlo simulation, I observed, the simulation did not even start.  I don't know exactly where it has gone wrong.  There is no log where I can find any error messages even. 

I will appreciate any kind of help on this.

Regards

Saikat Chatterjee

    First thing I'd suggest is to not use a version that's so old; secondly look in the job log file (right mouse button over the little terminal window in ADE XL). Then try opening the terminal (go to the detail view in ADE XL, and right mouse button->open terminal over one of the monte carlo points) - take a look to see if the input.scs is present in the netlist directory and so on.

    Debugging this via the forums is hard with so little information - customer support would be better, but they would also tell  you not to use a version that is probably 4.5 years old or so. A lot has changed in ADE since then.

    Andrew.
