Answers Database Prowave: Can't load .wfm file into Prowave Record #1959 Product Family: Software Product Line: ViewLogic Product Part: PROwave Product Version: 6.1 Problem Title: Prowave: Can't load .wfm file into Prowave Problem Description: Prowave: Can't load .wfm file into Prowave Sometimes the .wfm file that Prosim creates is larger than the system can handle. Here are three potential workarounds: Solution 1:    Reduce the number of monitored signals in the command (.cmd) file after    the wave command to reduce the number of waveforms to be displayed.    Make multiple command files that produce multiple .wfm files. <design1>.cmd ---> <design1>.wfm <design2>.cmd ---> <design2>.wfm <design3>.cmd ---> <design3>.wfm       ... etc. Solution 2:    If the first two suggestions are not possible, then the only remaining    possibility is to upgrade the system memory to exceed the size of the    .wfm file. Solution 3:    Break up the design into smaller time increments by simulating until known    states occur, or use the assign statement to reduce the number of cycles    necessary to set up signals.
