Does anyone have experience of simulating lumped element within geometry in FEKO?

I want to add a lumped capacitor between two metallic strip in FEKO (in construction that capacitor will be etched to metallic plate), if I want to use non-radiating network as lumped capacitor, which kind of port, should I use so that it can be connected to that network? I use edge port but it has no effect because lump element sees infinite impedance from that port.

another port doesn't appear in schematic view and others couldn't be used.

thanks.

    It should work with an edge port to which you assign a load. The edge has to be a shared edge between two metal faces in the same union. In the load you can specify the capacitor value or the complex impedance.
