Simulation Options

When you select Options from the Simulation menu, ProModel displays the Simulation Options dialog. This dialog contains several options for controlling the simulation, such as the run length, warm-up period, clock precision, and the name of the output file. You can also set the number of replications and the level of detail to be collected for the statistics. For more information about Simulation options, see Simulation Options.

The maximum run length depends on the clock precision and the time unit selected as shown in the following table.
