New task parameter list for circuit tasks: The property dialog boxes of OP, AC, S-Parameter and Transient tasks have changed.

In 2018, it was the other way round.Įxcitation Settings in Design Studio / Schematic Editor To define a probe, you need to select a connection first and select Probe afterwards. In 2018, probes were always part of a connection. The auto connection mode searched the vicinity of all selected block pins for potential connections and automatically connects them. Select one or more blocks and click alt enters the auto connection mode. Double click on any connectable element, click and drag on pins or connections, single click on pins starts creating a connection With the new engine, some workflows when creating a design have changed: The schematic editor has been reworked completely. Setting is visible and adjustable in the dialogue Global Mesh Properties - Specials - Discretizer: PBA Version default (PBANextGen switched on), legacy (=PBANextGen switched off) Models setup in earlier version (v2018, v2017. HEX-Mesh PBA Algorithm : Next generation PBA is now default for newly created models (more robust connectivity handling, even for extremely complex CAD models). Monitor farfields near to model is now active as default for newly created models.ĭiscrete ports / lumped element update is now set distributed as default for newly created models. The new function is now accessible by the "Change Pin Layout" function in the block context menu. The Layout tab has been removed from the block Properties dialog box. Instead, access to 1D Results should be done via the more powerful VBA method GetResultFromTreeItem() of the "Resulttree" object.ĭesign Studio: The "Change Pin Layout" workflow has been reworked. VBA Macros: The VBA object "Table" is not supported any more. Mesh type Hexahedral (legacy) disabled: For new projects it is no longer possible to select the hexahedral legacy type.īoardcheck: The rule “Net to Net Coupling” has been removed as it is completely covered by the rules “Single-Ended Net Isolation” and “Differential Net Isolation”. The same is true for a few other results, which can be plotted versus Mesh Pass. The convergence behavior of S-Parameters versus mesh passes can be viewed in the normal place under "1D Results/S-Parameters". T- and F- Solver Mesh Adaptation: In the folder "1D Results/Mesh Adaption", broadband S-Parameters are no longer displayed. We therefore recommend to install the license tools from the latest CST Studio Suite version (especially for UNIX/Linux license servers). The license daemon cstd, dongle drivers and license tools are continuously improved. Upgrade of CST License Server (especially relevant for floating license, LAN/WAN) Upgrade Information Upgrade Information This page is especially intended for users upgrading from an earlier version of CST Studio Suite.
