Frequency Discretization dialog box

Use this dialog box to define computation frequency intervals and storage increments.

When you define the function of frequency for the excitation sets, ensure that the range of intervals you set here matches the range you set in the formula field for the excitation set.

Modeling Object
Name	Sets a unique name for the modeling object.
Label	Sets a unique integer for the modeling object.
Properties
Description	Sets a description for this frequency discretization modeling object.You can optionally click Description to open the Description dialog box. This lets you see more of the text that you type, as well as cut, copy, or paste text.This description appears only on this dialog box.

Frequency tab

Frequency Interval
Except for the first frequency discretization modeling object, the starting frequency of each modeling object must be coincident with the ending frequency of the previous one.
From	Sets the lowest frequency in this interval.
To	Sets the highest frequency in this interval.
Imposed Frequency Step
Number of Frequency Steps	Sets the number of frequencies that you want to output within the range set by the frequency interval.

Storage tab

Set values for these options if you want to override the global storage values set for the solution.

Storage Frequency
Set the increments in whole numbers. For example, if you enter 1, each increment (Increment 1, Increment 2, Increment 3, and so on) is written to the output. If you enter 2, every second increment (Increment 2, Increment 4, Increment 6, and so on) starting with 2 is written to the output. If you enter 3, every third increment (Increment 3, Increment 6, Increment 9, and so on) starting with 3 is written to the output.
Storage Frequency of all Nodal Results (.CAT IA16)	Sets the increments for which you want the solver to write output of the nodal results.
Storage Frequency of all Element Results (.CAT IA4)	Sets the increments for which you want the solver to write output of the element results.
Storage Frequency of XY Results (.CAT IA19)	Sets the increments for which you want the solver to write output of the XY (time history) results.
