Kicad Simulation: Kicad does not support two components of a kind

Schematic Simulation (Ngspice)
1

Hello,
i have a problem, that KiCad simulation does not support two same models of a kind. I have a circuit with two comparators. When I remove one comparator it works.
It seems like the models are not internally seperated in spice.
Any advice? Maybe @holger

Did you check KiCad Eeschema as GUI for ngspice, tutorial for setting up the simulation , chapter 6?

Dear Holger,
I found my problem: I had implemented two 5V supply rails! That gave me the singularity warnings!

A missing zero node and a singularity warning in GUI would be nice, especially when it’s late =)

Dear Holger,
can you advice how to get the relaxation oscillator to converge?

This question is worth a new topic as the original question has been solved.

Try using this opamp in a simple (inverting) amplifier, to check its compatibility with ngspice. Not all models run in all simulators.

Then try running your oscillator with the generic opamp from library Simulation_SPICE, which is very stable, to check if your circuit is o.k.

There is a similar oscillator ( Comparator Oscillator) available at Simulation examples for KiCad/Eeschema/ngspice - #4 by holger .
