Hi,
I have a doubt about mnl file in Orcad Layout.
I have to modify a pcb layout, but I have some squematics for this design and mnl files generated, and I am not sure about what mnl file is my pcb layout using.
Can I know it?
When you create layout pcb (max file) using a netlist generated by capture (mnl file), after saving max file can you delete mnl file? Is any place or any way to know what netlist was used for layout?
I know that when you create a max file using a mnl file, when you modify the squematic (capture CIS) and generate a new netlist with autoECO activated(mnl file), when you load max file in Layout , it informs you that mnl files has been modified, and it upgrades layout design.
I have tried to modify squematics I have found, and I have created new netlist, but the layout doesn´t detect any change in the mnl file...Maybe this idea to know what mnl file is using is stupid, but I haven´t had any better one.
Thanks in advanced for your help!
