After simulating the coupler in circuit, I use the circuit component provided within HFSS, where I put my optimized values for the coupler. The coupler I designed on Taconic RF-35 substrate, thickness of 1.52 mm, DK = 3.5. However, after I inserted all of the input parameters as shown in the tutorial video, I receive a message, which is shown below:&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;<strong><em>Coupler-5GHz-component (D:\/SIMULATION\/COUPLER 4PORTS\/)<\/em><\/strong>&lt;br&gt;<strong><em>&nbsp; Circuit1<\/em><\/strong>&lt;br&gt;<strong><em>&nbsp; &nbsp; [info] Nexxim simulation will use local parameter scoping.
