Run Simulations
The Simulation Player contains several fields including:
1 Final Time
2 Images
3 Filter
4 Simulation Time
5 Percent of Realized Simulation
6 Real Time of Computation
Simulation Panel
Controls the total time available for simulation.Final Time field
Controls the number of image frames available for a
simulation.
Images field
Controls the frame display step. If the value is set to
1, all frames play. If the value is set to 5, every fifth

frame displays, and so on. This field is editable when
simulation mode is active, but a simulation is not
running.
Shows the duration of the motion of the mechanism
as would be witnessed with the physical model.
Simulation Time
Value
Shows the percentage complete of a simulation.Percent value
Shows the actual time it takes to run the simulation.
It is affected by the complexity of the model and the
resources of your computer.
