Description This command is used to run the Analyses Setup dialog, from where you can define and set up the analyses types you want to include in your design simulation, the scope of the simulation and the signals to be automatically displayed upon completion of the simulation.

Use After launching the command, the Analyses Setup dialog will appear. Use this dialog to define which analyses are performed during the simulation and configure each enabled analysis as required. Each individual analysis type is configured on a separate page of the dialog. Simply click on the analysis name to activate the corresponding setup page.

The type of data to be collected and the specific signals to be automatically displayed in the Waveform Analysis window of the SimData Editor can also be determined from the dialog.

Use the Sheets to Netlist field to choose whether the netlist should be created for the active schematic sheet only or all schematic sheets in the active project.

The Advanced Options page of the dialog enables you to define advanced simulation options, including the values of SPICE variables, the integration method used by the Simulation Engine and the simulation reference net. In general, you should not have to change any of the parameters in this page of the dialog for accurate simulation. Only change these options if you understand SPICE simulation parameters.

Notes Press F1 in a page of the Analyses Setup dialog to access overall help for that page. Use the dialog What's This Help ? to gain information on individual dialog controls.

The setup options that you define in the Analyses Setup dialog will be used in the creation of a SPICE netlist (*.nsx), upon which the simulation is run.

The options you define in the Analyses Setup dialog are stored in the project file (when saved). If you run a simulation directly, without bringing up the dialog, the settings from the project will be used.

You can edit setup information directly in the SPICE netlist and then run the simulation. If you do this, make sure that you save the netlist with a different name, otherwise it will be overwritten when the netlist is next generated from the schematic document.
