Jean, The idea of the links is to show how transient information passes through the system. Because parameter values are static (ie the information doesn't change with time) there are really only two ways to define it: either type it in to a particular component's fields, or make an equation block that defines variable names and assigns them a constant value, then type the name of the variable into a particular component's parameter fields. I have seen some people draw empty links from an equation block to a component to show that there is parameter information "being passed" but in my opinion, that just clutters up the system diagram. The best place to get a summary of a component's parameter information is to look at the input file. Best, David On 2/18/2012 15:43, jeannieboef wrote:
