Re: [TRNSYS-users] Locking variables in new proforma

[David BRADLEY <d.bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Doris,

 When you create the proforma for your components you can lock the parameter values by clicking on the lock icon next to each one. In this case the parameter value will be locked by default when the user adds the component to the project but will be able to unlock the parameter if they want. If, when you are creating your proforma you set the min, max, and default values of a parameter all to the same number then this will effectively lock the parameter completely such that the user will not be able to unlock it.

kind regards,

 David

Dear TRNSYS users,

 

for some of my new TRNSYS components I want to lock some variables in the proforma. I want these variables to be locked when the user first places the proforma on the assembly panel. In the manuals I can‘t find the information on how to achieve this.

 

As to illustrate what I mean: The different variants oft the types 65 and 25 all have two locked parameters. The parameter for the logical unit of the output file is locked, but may be unlocked by the user. However, the user cannot unlock the parameter for the units printing mode.

 

How can I achieve this or find instructions on how to do this?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Doris Buck
