Unable to load CSV files on Pearl Simulator
Posted: 11 Jun 2006, 18:16
I enconutered a problem when attempting to load a CSV file previously exported from Visualizer in the Pearl simulator.
The LCD screen warned me that "personality files must be cached for this function to work". Ok, no problem. I opened the CacheBuilder then I created a CPM file for the fixtures mounted in the theatre (I have only 14 Martin MAC600 m4). Then I wiped all the Pearl and from the service menu -> utilities I chose "Cache personality files". The Simulator searched the CPM file in the floppy disk (where I had saved the CPM) and then cached it. At the end, by pressing Exit, the pearl came back to the main program menu. Then I went to the Disk menu, selected "load CSV file" and I loaded the previously exported file but, unfortunately, the pearl didn't load it because, for it, personality files weren't cached.
What's the problem in the steps I followed? Is it useful for not defining the stage manually in the pearl to load the CSV file?
Thanks to all.
