Run the Macro File and Learn the Commands
If the single phase example has just been run, then either restart the software program or open another Console window by clicking the green button with the plus sign.
At the SYS
prompt, type macro
(short for the MACRO_FILE_OPEN command) and press <Enter>. Locate and select the macro file called simple_moving_boundary.dcm
as described in Opening the Module and Macro Files. The commands in the macro file set up, run and plot the simulation in the Console Results window.
In the macro file some abbreviations of the commands are used. You can shorten command names in an arbitrary manner as long as the abbreviations are unambiguous.
In the macro file most commands are first given as comments with the full name and then abbreviated. Commands that were not used in the single-phase simulation, or are used differently, are explained in more detail.
Comments in the macro file can be entered after two @@
symbols. In most cases the arguments of a command can be entered on the same line as the command itself.
