Table of Contents

The I/O Interface Configuration GUI can be opened from the HYPERSIM ribbon.

Configuration Menu

In the upper left corner of the interface, users have access to a Configurationmenu with three options:

Import

Import opens a dialog that allows you to import a pre-saved configuration file in .hio format (HYPERSIM I/O format) file.

Note that this file does not contain the Sensor configuration that is saved in the .sig file.

Export

Export opens a dialog that allows you to export part of or the entire configuration in .hio format (HYPERSIM I/O format) file.

Note that this file does not contain the Sensor configuration that is saved in the .sig file.

Global configuration

Global configuration opens a dialog box enabling users to configure parameters that are global to all interfaces for a given project/model.

Display monitoring information in the simulation log

When this box is checked, monitoring information for I/O interfaces is displayed in the simulation log. Be advised however that the simulation performance might be impacted. This is used mostly for debugging purposes.

I/O send time

Clicking this combo box offers two choices:

  • At the end of the step
  • At the beginning of the step

This choice affects the time at which the I/O are sent during a step: before or after the calculations.

Skip missing I/O

When this box is checked, exchanger, generating errors during initialization, are skipped.

OK

Confirms choices and/or assignments made on this page.

Cancel

Cancels out of this dialog and saves no changes.
