Transcript

Okay. Now we're ready to set up the MEP model. Go to file open, browse to your MEP model, and remember that we just pasted this here. We copied and pasted this here from the template and renamed it. So we wanna single click it, detach from central, open. And detach and preserve work sets. And very first thing we wanna do is file, save as, project, single, because again it adds the underscore detached. We want to single click project name to overwrite that. Double check that it's making it a central model and hit save. And yes.

And now that we're in the central model, the very first thing we wanna do is exit it, open, and create new local.
