settol
Purpose:
-
Set the compressed history tolerance value for a list of real variables.
Enter:
-
settol <label1> [label2 …] <tolerance>
Where:
-
labelX
Specify the label(s) of a real 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)
