data
By default, PSpice A/D writes data to the Probe file for all
internal nodes and devices in subcircuit models on a schematic.
You can choose to exclude data for internal subcircuit nodes and
devices.

the first part of
simulation output
Long transient simulations create large Probe data files because
PSpice A/D stores many data points. You can suppress a part of
the data from a transient run by setting the simulation analysis
to start the output at a time later than 0. This does not affect the
transient calculations themselves—these always start at time 0.
This delay only suppresses the output for the first part of the
simulation.
