PSpice A/D User Guide Creating and editing models October 2019 222 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 2022 All Rights Reserved. ■ Save the model to a different library by typing a new file name in the Library text box in the Save To frame. To save instance models 1. From the File menu, choose Save to update DESIGN_NAME.LIB and save it to disk. What happens if you do not save the instance model Before the schematic page editor starts the Model Editor, it does the following: ■ Makes a copy of the original model and saves it as an instance model in SCHEMATIC_NAME.LIB. ■ Configures SCHEMATIC_NAME.LIB for design use, if not already done. ■ Attaches the new instance model name to the Implementation property for the selected part instance. This means that if you: ■ quit the Model Editor, or ■ return to the design entry tool to simulate the design without first saving the model you are editing, the part instance on your schematic page is still attached to the instance model implementation. In this case, the instance model is identical to the original model. If you decide to edit this model later, be sure to do one of the following: ■ If you want the changes to remain specific to the current design, edit the instance model in the design library using the Model Editor. ■ If you want the change to be global, change the model implementation for the part instance in your design back to the original model name in the global library, and then edit the original model from within the part editor.
