    Salute to all!
    Could anyone check why OpenDSS-G does not show the full circuit after conversion?
    Follows the attached file.
    Thanks for listening.

      Hello,

      We were able to convert your circuit succesfully, however, we've also found a bug in OpenDSS when exporting the circuit again to the hard drive. please find the converted circuit attached and download a patch for OpenDSS-G from here:

      https://sourceforge.net/p/dssimpc/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/Distribution/OpenDSSG.exe

      Once you have the file, replace it at the OpenDSS-G installation folder (normally C:\program files\OpenDSS-G). This update avoids the problem when the circuit tree cannot be created internally and uses the standard incidence matrix to connect the buses lacking of buscoords to other buses in the main layer.

      I hope this works,

      Best regards

      Davis

    Davis,

    Yes, it worked, with this new version I could see the whole circuit. However, when opening the .dps file it still gives the same message as the attached image, but I managed to make the necessary simulations, after some corrections in the circuit.
    As a suggestion, there is no way to generate an error log file? For example, point out that on bus "XXX" a driver type "XXX" was specified, but was not found in the LineGeometry library, or even found the transformer in the xfrmcode library. Because I believe that with pointing the bus that there is some error, facilitates faster correction, especially when the circuit is very large, which is the case of this circuit.
    But anyway, thank you very much for correcting the problem that was occurring on this circuit.
    Thank you very much.
    Luciano.

      Hi Luciano,

      I'm glad it worked, and yes, the error appears because of a bug in OpenDSS, we've fixed it and expect to release that update in the next days. There is a log record in the database that can be accessed using the OpenDSS-G menu, it is helpful sometimes and includes the info you just reported.

      Please stay connected for the next release.

      Best regards

      Davis
