Opening a Model File

If you do not load a model file when you start the program, you can open the model file from the IC-CAP/Main window.

To open a model file from the IC-CAP/Main window:

    • To open an empty model template, choose File > New.
    • To open a model in the current directory, choose File > Open.
    • To open a model provided with the program, choose File > Examples.

A directory dialog box is used when data is being written to or read from a file. Initially, the dialog box displays the files in the directory from which you started the session.


Note


On the PC, hidden and system folders do not appear in the Directory dialog box. If you can't see a directory, just change its attributes so it's not a hidden or a system file.


When you select Examples, double-click the model_files directory in the dialog box to display the directories of the models that are provided with the program (see following table). Double-click a directory to see a list of models. Double-click a model to select and open that model.
