Parameter	Symbol	Description	Dimension (Range)
1. Type	N/A	Use to set the force and torque type. When Standard Concentrated Load is selected, the force and torque are defined by a Function Expression. When User Subroutine Concentrated Load is selected, the force and torque are defined by a specified User Subroutine. For more information, refer to Concentrated Load User Subroutine	N/A
2. Nodeset	N/A	Use to select a Nodeset using the General Picker.	N/A
3. Function	,	Use to set six functions to define force and torque. If the function is not defined, the corresponding force or torque will be zero.	Force, Force*Length
4. Direction Type	N/A	Use to set the direction type to either Rectangular or Cylindrical. This determines the directions of the specified force and torque. For more information, refer to Concentrated Load.	N/A
5. Function Manager	N/A	Open or close Function Expression. When the   button is clicked, Function Manager is opened. When the   button is clicked, Function Manager is closed.	N/A
6. Function Name	N/A	Use to set the name of the Function Expression. For more information on usage, refer to Function Expression Operation.	N/A
7. Function Input	N/A	Use to input a Function Expression. For more information on usage, refer to Function Expression Operation.	N/A
8. Reference Marker	N/A	Use to select a reference marker. The directions of force and torque are determined in the specified reference marker. If the reference marker is not defined, the inertia reference frame is used as the reference marker.	N/A
9. Control buttons	N/A	If all necessary parameters are set, these buttons are enabled. For more information about the control buttons, refer to Entity Properties Access and Modification.	N/A
