PLLATINUMSIM-SW: .NET Framework "Double" error

Tool/software:

Hello, I have installed the latest version of PLLatinum Sim release (1.6.6.0), and I encounter this error :

From what I understand, this error has occured multiple times to other users in the past, according to both those threads :

https://e2e.ti.com/support/clock-timing-group/clock-and-timing/f/clock-timing-forum/1064646/pllatinumsim-sw-microsoft-net-framwork-error-unhandled-exception (on 1.60)

https://e2e.ti.com/support/clock-timing-group/clock-and-timing/f/clock-timing-forum/1122031/pllatinumsim-sw-net-framework-error (on 1.6.2.0)

In both cases, it was related to the conversion between the way English and French deal with decimals ("1.5" in English, "1,5" in French).

According to those threads, a fix was provided in release 1.6.1, but seemed to have reappeared in 1.6.2.0.

What can be done to fix this issue ? I need to use the software to set-up a filter for the LMX2491 PLL. Is this device supported in other versions of the software that do not feature that EN-->FR bug ? If so, which one, and how can I download it ?

Thank you.
Best regards,
MM

Oh no! The arch nemesis of PLLatinum Sim has struck again!

I notice that if I manually switch the "." and "," in the control panel, it does not show up. But I was able to replicate this using French (France) in my regional settings. I found one line where I forgot to do the conversion and fixed and now it runs. The fix will go out with the next release.

Regards,

Dean

Alright, thank you very much.

I'll be waiting for the new version and keep you updated if I find anything else once it ships.
