Creating an Event

Before you can create an event, you must create a new file, as explained next. The instructions will point out differences between procedures in Adams/Car and Adams/Chassis, as needed.

To display the Event Builder:

•	Do one of the following, depending on your MD Adams product.

In Adams/Car:

•	Open the assembly MDI_DEMO_VEH.

•	From the Simulate menu, point to Full-Vehicle Analysis, and then select Event Builder.

In Adams/Chassis:

•	In Build mode, from the toolbar, select the Load Example Model button .

•	Adams/Chassis displays the default example model.

•	From the Test mode bookshelf, select Full-Vehicle, select Handling Analysis, and then double-click Standard Driver Interface (SDI).

•	From the property editor, select the Edit button .

Your MD Adams product displays the Event Builder, which is grayed out because you do not have a .xml file yet.

To create a new file:

1.	From the Event Builder’s File menu, select New.

The New File dialog box appears.

2.	Enter the name of the event: braking_in_a_turn. This is the name of the file that will be saved to your hard drive or network drive with a .xml extension.

3.	Select OK.

Your MD Adams product creates the file and also defines the first mini-maneuver, MINI_1.
