Appendix 6: Running MODPATH with PMWIN
PMWIN supports both two versions (version 1.x and 3.x) of MODPATH and MODPATH-PLOT. You must run
MODPATH or MODPATH-PLOT within a DOS-Box (of Windows) or in the DOS-Environment.
If you are using MODPATH version 1.x (released prior to September, 1994), type path\PATHFILE at the prompt
ENTER NAME OF FILE CONTAINING NAMES AND UNITS OF DATA FILES. Where path is the path to the
directory of your model data. PATHFILE contains the IUNIT assignments and paths and names of input data files
generated by PMWIN. The names of the input files for MODFLOW and MODPATH are given in Appendix 7.
If you are using MODPATH or MODPATH-PLOT (version 3.x), follow the steps below:
TO READ INPUT FROM AN EXISTING RESPONSE FILE, ENTER FILE NAME:
( = ENTER DATA INTERACTIVELY )
[ ? = Help ]
(WHAT YOU SHOULD DO: Just press ENTER here. For the first time you run MODPATH or MODPATH-PLOT,
you do not have a response file and you have to enter data interactively. The user-specified data will be saved
by MODPATH or MODPATH-PLOT in the response files MPATH.RSP or MPLOT.RSP, respectively. Using a
response file, you do not need to go through the input procedures unless you want to change the data for
MODPATH or MODPATH-PLOT).
Only by MODPATH-PLOT:
TO REDEFINE SETTINGS, ENTER NAME OF FILE WITH SETTINGS DATA:
( = USE DEFAULT SETTINGS FOR DEVICE)
[ ? = Help ]
(WHAT YOU SHOULD DO: Just press ENTER here, unless you want to change settings.)
ENTER THE NAME FILE:
[ ? = Help ]
(WHAT YOU SHOULD DO: Type path\MPATH30 at this prompt. Where path is the path to the directory of your
model data. For example, if you have saved your model data in C:\PMWIN\DATA, you will type
C:\PMWIN\DATA\MPATH30 at this prompt. After this prompt, you enter the interactive input procedure of
MODPATH or MODPATH-PLOT. Just follow the prompts of the programs.)
