Connecting Current-controlled Voltage source in PSpice

[leafalling]

Homework Statement

Referring to the circuit, I need to verify this by PSpice simulation.
I have calculated gain parameter k = 2.5 when R_in = 0 and the current flow through the 0.5S(2 ohm) resistor = 0.5I_oA, which is correct.

The Attempt at a Solution

Firstly, I considered I_o as a 1A DC current source in PSpice. Then, I have tried to connect the 4-terminal current-controlled voltage source in PSpice but I am not sure whether it is correct. Referring to the simulation result in PSpice, I also wondered why is there no current flow through the 2 ohm resistor (expected 0.5A here).
So, could anyone explain how to connect the 4-terminal current controlled voltage source in this case??
Thanks very much for your help!

The 4-terminal current-controlled voltage source is a type of dependent source. It requires two additional parameters, namely the controlling current (Ic) and the gain parameter (K). It is usually represented in schematics as two separate components (3 terminals each) connected together as shown in the image below.In PSpice, you can use the "VCCS" component to simulate the 4-terminal current-controlled voltage source. The Ic value will be the current flowing through the 0.5S resistor (2 ohm) and the K value should be 2.5. In your simulation, you should also make sure that the current source (Io) is connected to the correct terminals of the VCCS component. Make sure that the current flowing through the resistor is indeed 0.5A.
