Name and type definition
Name: Displays the name for the monitor either as a user input or automatically generated.
Automatic labeling: This check button enables or disables the automatic labeling for the defined monitor. The automatically generated label consists of the selected monitor type, including an incremented number.
Type: This drop-down list offers a selection of monitors. The currently available monitor type allows voltage or source current observations. The latter is particularly meaningful to observe the current flowing along a voltage path.
Edge or Curve Selection
Invert orientation: Each connected set of edges or curves has an orientation which results from their definition and which in general depends on the order of picking. This orientation is indicated by arrows in the monitor preview (select the monitor in the navigation tree). It will influence the solver result computed for this monitor. Activate this checkbox to invert the orientation.
Use picked edges: This option is available only when edges were picked before the dialog box is opened to define the monitor. Please note that only edges are considered which belong to a solid (no Edges from Coordinates).
Use curves: This option is available only when curves were defined before the dialog box is opened to define the monitor. When you push the button List Curves you can hide or show a list of all defined curve items from which you can select the desired items via enabling or disabling the desired check boxes.
OK
Accepts your settings and leaves the dialog box.
