Creating the Input Stimulus in the Control File

You can edit a control file saved within a simulation run directory by creating an input stimulus.

To create an input stimulus in the current simulation run directory:

In the schematic window, select Simulation – Stimulus – Edit File.
The Edit Run Directory File form appears.

The Simulation – Stimulus – Edit File command is enabled only after you have used the Initialize command to initialize the simulation environment.
In the File Name field, specify the name of the simulation run directory file that you want to edit.
The Simulation Run Directory field in this form is read-only. To change this directory, click Cancel and choose the Initialize command again.
Click OK.
The system brings up a new window displaying the file you specified.
Edit the file in the syntax of your analysis tool using a text editor.
You can specify all your customizations directly into the control file or you can type SE substitution functions to translate names and merge the customizations in other files.
Exit the text editor when you have finished editing the file.
The system automatically closes the window.
