Rank of Pi error message

Unread post by gaetanodadamo »

Hello,

I have recently started working with CATS and I have a technical problem. When I use the menu to indicate the rank of Pi after the rank test, the following is displayed:

## MAT13. Store into Out-of-Range Matrix or Series Element
The Error Occurred At Location 0086 of %AUTONORMMAT%
Line 37 of %AUTONORMMAT%
Line 74 of %SETPIRANK%
Line 128 of %CATSMENU%
Line 345 of CATS

... and RATS and CATS stop working; I have to start the program all over again :? . Is there a bug or is it something that has actually already been solved for this problem?

Thanks

You've probably updated your copy of RATS recently. CATS 2.0 requires some updated files to work properly with RATS 6.3 or later. Getting those updates should resolve the problem.

Please email us at support@estima.com with your full name and your CATS (or RATS) serial number and we'll email you the necessary files.

Dear Estima Team,

I have exactly the same problem while running CATS in RATS, but actually I am using RATS 7.0 and CAT 2.0 and the problem still appears. I really need CATS at my work.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best,

It's the same issue--note that I referred to versions 6.3 or later requiring updates to CATS 2.0.

Please email us at

support@estima.com

with your RATS and CATS serial numbers, and we will send you the necessary files.

Hello,
I am new to CATS and I seem to be getting this same error message when I try to include deterministic terms in my CVAR model. I am wondering if there is a fix for this or if I might also receive these files to update CATS? I am running RATS 8 with CATS 2.0.
many thanks

As noted above, you may need some updated files.

See:

http://www.estima.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1129

for the files that changed for compatibility with version 8 of RATS.
