Virtuoso 18.1

mooks

Hi,

Getting the warning message while trying to use the router in virtuoso18.1,

*WARNING* "Command wrongway_pin_escape requires application feature Router only that cannot be licensed".

*WARNING* TCL error: ERROR - no further information available.

From these two warning message what I could understand is that in virtuoso18, routing cannot be done without  "router license". Is my understanding correct?

If my understanding is not correct what are these warning messages mean?

The problem I am facing is that couldn't be routed by choosing the options "Route/Automatic Routing/All nets" as in other version of Virtuoso (6.1...).

Please suggest.

    The licensing requirements haven't changed as far as I'm aware (see https://support.cadence.com/apex/ArticleAttachmentPortal?id=a1Od0000000nY5IEAU&pageName=ArticleContent ). You should contact customer support so that we can look into this with respect to the licenses you actually have.

    Andrew.
