In order for a timing diagram to use a library, it must know the library's name and path location. This information is kept in the diagram's library search list.

Choose the ParameterLibs > Parameter Library Preferences menu to open the Parameter Library Preferences dialog.

Press the Add Library to List button to open the Parameter Library Browse dialog to search for libraries on your disk.

Select the two sample libraries ac.txt and 3ac.txt, located in the SynaptiCAD\Examples\TutorialFiles\ParameterLibraries directory.

Press the OK button to add the selected files to your search list, and close the Parameter Library Browse dialog.

Notice that the filenames for the libraries have their path names attached unless you have unchecked the Use full path names check box. If it is unchecked, the library path searched will be relative to the location of the timing diagram.

The next section also uses the Parameter Library Preferences dialog so leave it open.
