2.2.17 Rated Variable Capacitor
This component acts much like a regular capacitor, except that you can, with a single
keystroke, adjust its capacitance.
Note Refer to the Component Reference Guide for a more detailed discussion of capacitors.
 To adjust the component’s tolerances:
1. Double-click on the placed component and click the Value tab.
2. Change the following values as desired:
•
Key — enter the key that will increase the capacitance by the amount set in the
Increment field.
•
Increment — enter the amount by which the capacitance will increase when the key set
in the
Key field is pressed (instead of pressing the key, you can hover your cursor over
the variable capacitor and click the button that pops up).
•
Animation Delay Factor — increase this number to slow the speed of animation of the
