settol

Purpose:

Change the compressed history tolerance value for a list of variables.

Enter:

settol <label1> <label2> <label3> … <tolerance>

Where:

labelX

Specify the label(s) of a real, integer, or logical variable.

tolerance

Specify the new tolerance value to apply to each variable listed.

Example:

settol exh_prt1_texh_prt2_texh_prt3_tmy_varyour_vr 1.0
The above command sets the compressed history tolerance for each of the listed variables to 1.0 (in the units of the variable).

Notes:

Using “settol” from the command line means that the change is only temporary. After a new “go”, the tolerance values may return to the state defined in the appropriate specification file where the variable is created.

Placing the “settol” command in the /cell/go.scp file will modify the tolerance each time a “go” is executed.

The “tolerance” setting affects the following:

– the accuracy of the waveform re-constructed by the historyplot utility ( smaller tolerance values result in more accurate depiction of the waveform )

– the disk storage required ( smaller tolerance values result in more disk storage requirement)

– the time to re-construct the waveform ( smaller tolerance values will take longer to re-construct )
