Model Editor Library Path Error

OldRookie

 New to the Forum and new toOrCAD 16.6 LITE.

Installed version 16.6 LITE with no warnings or errors. Capture and Pspice work well. Have created and successfully simulated several switching designs. Life is good :)

The problem comes when I try to launch Model Editor, either standalone or from within Capture. It will not launch and gives me the error message  "The library path is not configured. Please check your product installation."

I have un-installed the entire suite, rebooted, and done a full re-install three times ... I get the same error message.

An old rookie would appreciate some help from those who may have experienced this problem before.

Cheers,  John

    Start Capture and open a PSpice project, possibly the Example from tools\pspice\capture_samples\anasim\example might be best, then use PSpice>Edit Simulation Profile, on the Configuration Files tab, select "Library" at the upper right, Library Path at the lower centre of that form is likely to be empty, it should be set to the installation path and the PSpice library location, the default would be C:\Cadence\SPB_16.6\tools\pspice\library. Give that a try as first pass.(This setting gets stored to the "pspice.ini" file in the installation.)

    Thanks for the rapid response.

    I followed your instuctions and opened the sample project in Capture, and checked the Library Path. It was set correctly to ""C:\OrCAD\OrCAD_16.6_Lite\tools\PSpice\Library"  Unfortunately, still got the same error message when I tried to launch the Model Editor. Other applications such as Magneticdesigner seem to launch just fine.

     

    Cheers John
