Re: [TRNSYS-users] parametric run

[Werner Keilholz <werner@cstb.fr>]

Note that you can also control the creation of constants in IISiBat by 
locking / unlocking
variables in the parameters / inputs window. TRNSED constants will be 
automatically
created for all variables which are not locked if 'Write TRNSED 
commands' is ON in
the Global Cards window.
