Modifying the Starting Variable Value for Statistical Analysis
A variable's starting value is the first value solved during the statistical analysis. Optimetrics sets the starting value of a variable to be the current value set for the nominal design. You can modify this value for each statistical setup.
Warning:
Variable values must be single real numbers, or expressions that evaluate to single real numbers. Complex numbers cannot be used as the values of variables in any optimetric analysis.
- In the Setup Statistical Analysis dialog box, click the Variables tab. All of the variables selected for the statistical analysis appear.
- Type a new value in the Starting Value text box for the value to override, then press Enter.
The Override option is now selected. This indicates that the value you entered will be used for this statistical analysis; the current value set for the nominal model will be ignored.
- Alternatively, you can select the Override option first, then type a new variable value in the Starting Value text box.
- Optionally, click a new unit system in one of the Units text boxes.
To revert to the default starting value, clear the Override option.
