(1) The data record keyword indicates the corresponding structure number for the positions in columns 21-80; for example, enter POS1 for Structure 1, POS2 for Structure 2, .... PO10 for Structure 10.

(2)-(7) This is the total position of the structure indicated by the data record keyword (1) at the start of the time-history simulation. Angles are in degrees.
