[PCB_FORUM] Re: Allegro V15.7 (HIGHER TIER TOOL MESSAGE)

Dave,
Yes, that was for CM enabled error 300.
Unfortunately, when I try this...it responds with "nil" instead of "t". Still deletes my constraints.

Open ,brd then type the following in the Allegro Command Line.

In Allegro type: skill <return>
type: axlDBControl('cmgrEnabledFlow nil) <return>.
You should see a 't' in the command area which indicates the command was successful.
This will reset the branding flag inside the database so netrev will not look for pstcm*.dat files.

Thanks for your reply,
Mark

Hi
 
I've seen a similar problem when someone open the Constraint Manager from inside
the schematic. Once they open it the schematic becomes the driver for the CM not
Allegro.
 
There is a procedure to break this connection. If this is what's going on you can contact
Cadence and they will tell you how to do it.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Allegro V15.7 (HIGHER TIER TOOL MESSAGE)

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me why I am getting this message when opening a board that was just packaged into from a board previously saved by the same tool?
Saved board, package (Concept) schematic change into the saved board, then output board = new name.
I have lost all of my Constraint Manager groups for my matched impedances. (OUCH)!


I always use Allegro Design Entry HDL L


Here are my import logic to Allegro settings:


With Allegro open I can see the option L (see below) NOT A HIGHER TIER TOOL...THE SAME TOOL.



This is happening every time I package now.

Regards,
Mark
