Simulation Profile Setup Issues

donmonheim

Hey I'm pretty new to PSPICE and I've followed every tutorial there is and they all pretty much say you can choose the "none" option to avoid the inherit from issue when there are no .sim files to inherit from. I have Orcad_lite_9_2 and I'm in the"PSPICE AD Lite Edition" and I went to New Simulation Profile and I see the fields for "Profile name" and "Inherit from existing profile" as well as the "Create" "cancel" "help" and even "..."(browse) buttons but I don't see a "none" option anywhere. I've searched for hours and I've got a project I have to get finished.

    Ok, this clarifies the issue you are facing, but still image uploaded by you is not visible to me.

    You can not create a "New Simulation profile"  from scratch in PSpiceAD. In PSpice it needs to be based on existing profile, so that I can obtain associated design file like netlist etc, hence having just simulation profile does not make sense thus not supported. If you can explain what exactly you are trying to accomplish here, may be people can suggest an alternate to accomplish that.
