Contacting Us

 

Manitoba Hydro International, Ltd. (MHI) and its representatives are committed to providing you with the best sales and technical support available.

 

Contact your local PSCAD representative first for fast and efficient service.  If you do not have their contact address from the time you purchased PSCAD, you can get it either from the PSCAD Web Site (www.pscad.com) or by contacting MHI directly.  To make the best use of our technical support and sales facilities you should have a maintenance contract arranged through your local PSCAD supplier.

Support Petition Request

Users issue a Support Petition Request directly from PSCAD. A Support Petition Request will automatically contain information regarding your PSCAD version, compiler version and license data, appended to the request.  This will minimize the need for 'back-and-forth' communications, which can be cumbersome especially for our Asian and European users.

 

To send a support query, click the File tab in the ribbon control bar and select Help | Support Request...

 

 

This will bring-up the Support Request pane.  Simply add your comments in the spaces provided.  Please ensure that you provide a Summary,and a Description of your problem, as well as select a Category from the drop list.  When finished, press the Submit button.  An email will be sent directly to PSCAD Support Services.
