•Command: Edit

Edit the simulation parameters associated with the active simulation.

•Command: Duplicate

Combination of Copy & Paste & Edit.

•Command: Run

Runs a simulation using the default fixed-grid simulator.

•Command: Adaptive Grid Simulator

Runs a simulation using the adaptive-grid simulator.
 

•Command: Pause

Pauses or continues the currently running active simulation.

•Command: Break

Breaks  the currently running active simulation.

•Command: Compare              
Copies the active simulation and the currently selected active experiment to the Tabbed Window: Compare Curves to show a direct comparison of the associated current curves.

•Command: Circles

The active current curve is plotted in the form of open circles.

•Command: Filled Circles

The active current curve is plotted in the form of filled circles.

•Command: Min/Max Info

Shows the E-I-couple referring to the minimum/maximum found in a rectangle of the screen display drawn by mouse.

•Command: Next Scan Segment

Activates the next scan segment If the active simulation consists of more than one.

•Clipboard Command: Copy

Copies the active simulation and puts the copy on the clipboard.

•Clipboard Command: Cut

Cuts the active simulation and puts it on the clipboard.

•Clipboard Command: Paste

Pastes clipboard content into the Tabbed Window: Simulations.

•Command: RAM-Disk              

Opens a dialog box showing the actual content of the RAM-Disk. The RAM-Disk stores data in use-file format and can be used, for instance, to export  CVs simulated in the Tabbed Window: Simulations to the Tabbed Window: Experiments window. In this way experimental curves can be mimicked by simulated ones, for instance, in order to investigate how  systematic errors such as noise are passed to individual parameter values when using these files in a fitting project.

•RAM-Disk Command: Export

•RAM-Disk Command: Add all Simulation to RAM-Disk

Exports all simulations shown in the Tabbed Window: Simulations in use-format and stores the use-files in the RAM-Disk.

•File Command: Export

Exports the active simulation in use-format and stores the use-file on hard disk.

•File Command: Export all Simulations

Exports all simulations  shown in the Tabbed Window: Simulations in use-format and stores the use-files on the hard disk.

•Command: Next

The next current curve is activated.

•Command: Previous

The previous current curve is activated.

•Command: Delete Active Simulation

Deletes the active simulation.

•Command: Delete All Simulation

Deletes all simulations shown in the Tabbed Window: Simulations.

•Command: Zoom

Zooms the screen display by pressing down the left mouse button and draw a rectangle around the region which is to be zoomed. The zoom command can be repeatedly applied.

•Command: Unzoom

Undo the zoom command.

•Command: Refresh Screen

Removes Min/Max-Info and redraws the screen display.

•Option: Plot ZI vs. ZR
Plots the imaginary part of the impedance, ZI, versus the real part of the impedance, ZR.

•Option: Plot Z vs. 1/sqrt(ω)
Plots both the real and imaginary part of the impedance, Z, as function of ω-1/2, where ω is the frequency, f, multiplied by 2π.

•Option: Plot cot(ϕ) vs. sqrt(ω)
Plots the phase angle, φ, as function of the ω1/2, where ω is the frequency, f, multiplied by 2π.
