Prepare the Model for Use on the Workstation

Follow these steps:

1. Access CA Gen Toolset on the workstation and click Model, Open Model.
2. Select a model and click Open.
3. When the model's local name appears on the title bar, select Options, Encyclopedia Communications.
4. Verify that the box beside Perform file transfers for encyclopedia options contains no checkmark. This ensures that the automatic file transfer is turned off. Click OK.
5. Select Model, Encyclopedia, Check Out A Model.
6. Verify that the names are correct. If you are checking out a subset, enter the subset name. Click OK.
7. The Check Out A Model box appears. The message in the box says that the model is being prepared for use, and it shows the percentage currently completed.

When the model has been prepared, the Model Retrieval Status Report appears. The report shows the model and subset names, extraction date and time, and comments about the check out. Double‑click the dash in the upper left corner when you are ready to close the report window. The model is now ready for use.
