Database configuration not possible after new installation

Giatzo
Giatzo over 6 years ago

Hello,

I'm moving to a new PC and I'm reconfiguring Orcad Capture CIS 17.2.  I don't know why, but I can't configure my database because I don't have the option in Options -> CIS Configuration. Why? 64bit Database is configured correctly.

    I've updated CIS at the version 17.2-2016-s052 and I've configured the ODBC source. I still don't have the option CIS configuration.  What's happening?

    You may have a valid license but you have started Capture with an OrCAD PCB Designer license, that only enables the Capture functionality. You need to start Capture with an OrCAD Capture CIS license, or an OrCAD PCB Designer with Capture CIS Option license to enable the Capture CIS functionality.

    Thank you very much oldmouldy. The problem was the licence not properly configured. Now I have the CIS option and everything is working fine.
