DMU Fitting  

This page deals with the DMU Fitting options.

Shuttle Angular Validation

Checking the Angle limitation box enables you set the angular shuttle validation option in the Edit Shuttle dialog box. 

Once you select Angle limitation, you can specify a Maximal angle for the rotation of the shuttle and the Vector around which the shuttle will rotate.

The default value is to have Angle limitation deselected.

Path Finder  

If Automatic smooth is selected, smooth is performed within the Path Finder command once you click the OK button.

The default value is to have Automatic smooth deselected.

Track

Automatic track update
If Automatic track update is selected, the track is automatically updated after modification.

Manual update is the default value.

Default speed
You can modify this value at any time.  When you modify the default speed, the modification applies to tracks created after the modification.  To modify the speed on existing tracks, use the Properties dialog box.

Default speed is 0.001m_s.

Default Time
You can modify this value at any time.  When you modify the default time, the modification applies to tracks created after the modification.  To modify the time on existing tracks, use the Properties dialog box.

Default time is 0.001s.

Default Clash Detection

When activating the default clash detection, the clash computation can take several minutes before the Simulation dialog boxes are displayed. Sometimes it is more convenient not to compute this clash detection for the first step. Also, the first step can already be validated by a static clash analysis. The Activated only while moving option increases the efficiency of the default clash detection.

If this option is selected,  no calculation will be performed when the default clash detection is activated (i.e., set to on or stop). When running tracks, sequences, and simulations, clashes are still calculated with respect to the default clash detection state (i.e., on, off, or stop).

The Activated only while moving option is deselected by default.
