PLECS 2.2 Online Help |
The setting Symbol format controls whether resistors and capacitors are drawn in DIN or ANSI style. The table below shows the different component representation for both settings.
DIN | ANSI |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
The Scope preset setting determines whether the PLECS scopes are drawn with a black or white background.
The maximum amount of memory that is used by PLECS during the simulation can be controlled with the setting Cache size limit. Once PLECS reaches the memory limit it will discard earlier computation results which may have to be recalculated later during the simulation. On the other hand the value should not be higher than about one third of the physical memory of the computer where PLECS is running, otherwise the simulation performance may be degraded due to swapping.
The setting Thermal description search path contains the root directories of the thermal library. See section Thermal Library for more details.
