The systems are made from individual components. Define or modify the properties of these components in the relevant dialog. You can access all parameter dialogs:

• via the variant menu System Definition > <Your_Component>,
• by double-clicking the relevant component in the system schematic.
• using the Properties context menu (right-mouse click).
• Go from one parameter dialog to the next, by using the arrow buttons .

Just as the displayed system schematic changes depending on the system selected, so do the submenus available.

How to define a system:

1. Open the System Definition by double-clicking on the system schematic.
2. Go through all site data and components pages and enter the required parameters. If you change site data (see chapter Site Data Menu) here, these changes only apply to this variant.
3. The Parameters buttons take you to the respective parameter setting dialogs.
4. Click on the Select button to add database components.
   • Data from the components database cannot be altered if they represent “real” components from manufacturing companies. Only data on “virtual” T*SOL® database components can be modified!
5. All System Parameters dialogs include the tab Results File, where you can select additional properties, which then will be added to the results file and you can select them in the results graphics.
   • The standard properties are displayed for reference as well.
6. Use the arrow buttons at the bottom right of the dialog window to toggle between the dialogs of the individual components. This saves entries made just as clicking OK.
7. Click on OK to end entry and accept all changes. If you click the Cancel button, all changes in this dialog are reset.
8. Start the simulation.
9. Then you can do a financial analysis.
10. In addition, it can present a summary of the simulation results in project reports or in graphic / tabular form.
