Step 4: Creating a New Schematic

See Basic Schematic Editing for a detailed description of the schematics GUI.

The first step to running a simulation is to create a schematic. To do so, in File > Options, click New Default Document.

A browser opens with the default path: C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\HYPERSIM

Either browse to a custom path or save your schematic to the default location.

The main modeling and simulation interface appears.

The tab pane provides access to various menus: File, Home, Options, View, Design and HYPERSIM®.

The Schematics window is where schematics are displayed. This includes the Parts libraries, with previews of the blocks.

The Signal Routing and Target Inputs and Outputs options contain connection options for your model. All other blocks are either power system network components or control blocks. The library can be docked and undocked by clicking the small arrow next to Parts.

This window also features a view of each open design.
