These pages cover a range of topics related to Basic Schematic Editing. The topics are listed in a table of contents at the top of each page. |
...
| UCM | Gives access to options related to User Code Model (UCM) such as editing or recompiling the code. This is only relevant for UCM blocks. |
|---|---|
| Copy name to clipboard | Copies the device name to the clipboard. It can be used at a later stage for pasting (using Ctrl+V) into other name input boxes. It is practical to use this function for creating name variations among devices using a root name. It can be also used to name a signal with the name of a connected device. |
| Exclude/Include | Excludes the selected device from the Netlist, it will not be seen by HYPERSIM® and will not be part of the simulation. It becomes an open circuit. Excluded devices have a color code. |
| Open Parameters form | Displays the parameters editing form window of the device. This window can also be opened by double-clicking on the device |
| Open Sensors form | Displays the sensors editing form window of the device. |
| Select all sensors | Selects all the sensors of the device. |
| Clear all sensors | Deselects all the sensors of the device. |
| Generate XML | Generates the .xml file needed to customize the device parameter forms. This file is generated in %USERPROFILE%\HyperWorks\ with a file name defined as CustomView_DeviceCategory_DeviceType.xml |
| HYPERSIM® task required | Only relevant for control blocks and allows to create a dedicated simulation task for the block. |
| Observables | Selects which signals in Observables that will be available for external use. Another information box is opened by selecting the Properties command (see the section below on Device info). If this device is a subcircuit it will have a separate menu item Subcircuit Info. |
| Attributes | Provides access to device attributes. |
| Name | Another method for entering the device name. |
| Line Colour | Changes the line color of the device. |
| Fill Colour | Changes the fill color of the device. |
| Edit Symbol | invokes the Symbol Editor for this device |
Forms
You can access the device parameter forms window either by double-clicking on the device or by right-clicking on it and clicking Open Parameters Form. This window allows the user to change the parameters defining the behavior and properties of the device during a simulation. For example, in the case of an RLC component the user can specify the R, L and C values for each phase along with the base voltage, frequency, and MVA:
