Random Base Excitation node commands

The following commands appear when you right-click a random base excitation node in the Simulation Navigator.

Icon	Command name	Description
	Make Active	Appears when the event is not active.Activates the event.
	Edit Attributes	Opens the Random Base Excitation dialog box to let you modify the selected random base excitation. You can modify the event even if it has been solved.
	Clone	Clones the event.
	Rename	Renames the event and, optionally, the associated BUN and OP2 files.
	Delete	Deletes the event and, optionally, the associated BUN and OP2 files.
	Solve→Solve Event	Solves the selected event.
	Solve→Solver Input File	Generates the XML input file for the selected event. The file is stored in the working folder.
	Solve→Solver Batch File	Generates the --.bat batch file for the selected event, which you can use to run the event in standalone mode. The file is stored in the working folder.
	Solve→Stop	Available while the software solves the random base excitation.Stops the solution process.
	Check Obsolete Status	Available when the response dynamics status is active and the random base excitation event status is obsolete.Verifies the format validity of the SOL103 Response Dynamics results file.
	Show Solution Log	Opens the Information window to display the content of the --.log file that contains output messaging from the random base excitation solver.
	Information	Opens the Information window that lists general information about the random base excitation event.

Excitations node commands

The following commands appear when you right-click the Excitations node under the random base excitation node in the Simulation Navigator. Depending on the event type, other commands can be available. This table only list commands for the random base excitation event.

Icon	Command name	Description
	Delete All	Appears when an excitation exists.Deletes the associate excitation.
	New Excitation→Translational Nodal	Appears when no excitation exists.Opens the New Translational Nodal Function Excitation dialog box that lets you create an excitation for the event.
	Information	Opens the Information window that lists general information about the excitation for the random base excitation event.

Excitation node commands

The following commands appear when you right-click the excitation node under the random base excitation Excitations node in the Simulation Navigator.

Icon	Command name	Description
	Edit Attributes	Opens the New Translational Nodal Function Excitation dialog box that lets you modify the selected translational nodal excitation, scale factor, and frequency range. You can modify the excitation even if the event has been solved.
	Rename	Renames the excitation.
	Delete	Deletes the excitation.
	Information	Opens the Information window that lists general information about the excitation for the random base excitation event.

Results node command

The following command appear when you right-click the Results node under the random base excitation node in the Simulation Navigator.

Icon	Command name	Description
	Delete	Deletes random base excitation OP2 and BUN results files.

Contour node command

The following command appear when you right-click the Contour node under the random base excitation node in the Simulation Navigator.

Icon	Command name	Description
	Open	Opens random base excitation contour results in the Post Processing Navigator.

PSD XY Functions node command

The following command appear when you right-click the PSD XY Functions node under the random base excitation node in the Simulation Navigator.

Icon	Command name	Description
	Load	Loads random base excitation PSD function results under the Nastran OP2 Files - Sort2 Results node in the XY Function Navigator.
