MS1 Version 5 - DOWNLOAD

Version 5.2c - January 29, 2007

New features and improvements

Several bugs have been fixed and several small improvements have been made at many places in the program.

However, the main difference with version 5.1 is that a new code generator has been developped for the Modelica language targetting specifically the OpenModelica software, which can be downloaded from the OpenModelica Project web site.

Acknowledgement: this development has been made with the support of L.A.I. at INSA DE LYON.

Demo version of MS1 for Windows

The demo version 5.2c of MS1® is delivered with a demo version 4.55 of Esacap™.

MS1 and Esacap are fully operational. The only limitation is on the model size i.e. number of model variables.

Both F. Lorenz and StanSim decline any liability for damages arising from the trial use of their respective software.

Viruses, adwares and other malwares

I regularly scan my computers with Kaspersky® Anti-Virus. I also run Ad-Aware to clean my computers from adwares. However, I strongly recommand that you re-scan yourself the MS1 directory to check that everything is clean.

Also note that MS1 does not have any numerical certificate (which your computer will probably point out). Thus never download it from anywhere else than the original site www.lorsim.be, which domain name is under my control.

Download and installation

Download: MS1 5.2c + ESACAP 4.55 (5.32 Mb)

N.B.: this version of MS1 has been prepared under Windows 2000. If you encounter any installation or execution problem, I can prepare another version under Windows XP.

• Download the file hereabove to a temporary directory ("C:\TEMP" is a good classical choice).
• Double-click that file to extract the setup components.
  The self-extracting file will propose to extract the setup components to directory "C:\TEMP\MS1 5.2c". You may choose another location if you wish.
  Also, it will propose to start automatically the 'Setup.exe' installation program. If you refuse, you'll simply have to double-click the file 'Setup.exe' by yourself to start installation.
• As installation processes, simply follow the few instructions given by the setup program.
• After installation, you may "clean" the temporary directory from all intermediate files.
• If you already have a key code for version 5.2, don't forget to copy your 'code.txt' file to the MS1 5.2c directory.
  ATTENTION: If you have a key code for a version before 5.2, THIS ONE WILL NO LONGER WORK. You must contact me so that I can provide you with a new code. (Users having paid the maintenance fee are not concerned, as they received their new code.)
  You should also check (copy) the 'ms1.ini' file (site preferences) as well as the 'escprun.bat' and/or 'acslrun.bat' files (solver launchers).

(¹) Maintaining the user's manual is much harder a task than maintaining the program itself. This is to explain that the manual is not up to date, although it is usefull anyway.
