    1. Hints

    • If the correct response is not obtained when performing the commands described, try
    pressing the “Esc” button, since it cancels all previous commands.
    • Save often since the program sometimes crashes.
    • It is essential to type in exactly the correct words since the program will differ between
    upper and lower case letters.
    • Always do check and save before simulating a schematic.
