Select candidate sensor DOF from sensor configuration results

This example shows how to reuse an existing sensor configuration created using the MODMAC algorithm to define candidate sensor DOFs for exciter selection.

  1. In the Simulation Navigator, under the Exciter Selection node, right-click the Sensor DOF [0] node, and choose Initialize from.

  2. In the Initialize DOF Selection group, from the Type list, select Configuration.

  3. In the Entity list, select a sensor configuration.

  4. Click OK.Notice that the Sensor DOF [#] node contains the same number of DOFs as the source sensor configuration.
