'General' tab

You make general settings for the respective FMU under the General tab. These are, for example, the selection of the tool that generated the FMU or the selection of the solver to be used for the calculation of the FMU. These settings are necessary because the exporting tools do not always export all the required information to an FMU or because of tool-specific peculiarities.

'General' tab 1:

FMU Input:

Selection of the FMU to be imported.

Generation Tool:

Selection of the tool that generated the FMU.

Solver:

Selection of the solver to be used.

If an FMU is exported via Model Exchange, it contains only the corresponding differential equations describing the model. Not included in the FMU are then the solvers to solve these equations. Solvers from the internal TwinCAT solver library are available in the Solver selection field. The solvers can be selected for solving the equations.

If an FMU was exported via co-simulation, it already contains the solver. Co-simulation must then be selected in the Solver selection field.
