· Connect to the database (Menu → File → Connect database )
· In the File menu, select Modelà Create new.
· Give your model a name in the model name field. The name must include no more than 255 characters, but we recommend that you keep your descriptions a little shorter than that!
· The new model has been created with a range of predefined values for factors and dimensioning. Review and change these to the values you require in your model and save the model by pressing the Create button. If you use the Cancel button, no model will be created.
· Select your new model as the current model in the Model toolbox.
You can now create pipes in the new model or import a NetSim calculation file to the model.
