Power Systems Laboratory

Please install GNU Fortran compiler. Also, make sure the system environment variables for the compiler is correct. You can download it from www.pscad.com under PSCAD->Free Downloads.
The "make -f" error is usually due to the fact that either the EGCS GNU Fortran compiler is not installed, or the associated environment variables have not been automatically set properly.
Usually, the easiest way to fix this problem is to re-install the GNU compiler. However, if you have done this multiple times already, you will have to enter the EGCS/GNU Fortran Compiler environment variables manually:

Right-click on your 'My Computer' icon and select Properties.
Click the Advanced tab and select Environment Variables.
Ensure that the following User Variable is set:
Variable: GCC_EXEC_PREFIX
Value: C:\progra~1\egcs\lib\gcc-lib\
Ensure that the following paths are added to the User Variable PATH (in
addition to what already exists):
Variable: PATH
Value: c:\progra~1\egcs\bin
GNU compiler associated settings have to be in lower case 8 character
equivalent strings.
GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=c:\progra~1\egcs\lib\gcc-lib\
PATH=c:\progra~1\egcs\bin
