Select to configure the SCT to always use the same timesteps as the included slots. Selecting this check box disables the remaining time range settings on this dialog box.

Clear this check box if you want to configure the SCT to use a different run control range from the model.

This field is active only if Always Synchronize Range with Slots is selected.

Specify the number of pre-run timesteps to include in the SCT. The default is 0, which indicates the SCT should start at the same timestep as the model.

The specified number of timesteps are added to the beginning of the model run control range on the SCT. See Timestep size for details.

Specify the number of post-run timesteps to include in the SCT. The default is 0, which indicates the SCT should end at the same timestep as the model.

The specified number of timesteps are added to the end of the model run control range on the SCT. See Timestep size for details.

Display only. Displays the timestep size defined for the model.

Select to have the SCT use a different timestep size than the model. Select the SCT timestep size in the menu.

Clear to have the SCT use the same timestep size as the model.

Select if you want the Status area at the bottom of the SCT to display status information for the current model simulation run. The run status replaces the default status display during and upon completion of a simulation run.

Clear if you want the status area at the bottom of the SCT to always display cell summary information, even during a simulation run.

Select if you want the SCT to display undefined numeric values with the string “NaN”.

Clear if you want the SCT to display undefined numeric values as empty, or null, cells.

Select to display a thin border around each cell on the SCT.

Clear to hide the borders around each cell.

Select to highlight read-only cells with crosshatching in a user-defined color. See Color tab for the crosshatch color settings.

Clear to have read-only cells display with no special markings.

Read-only cells contain non-editable values. These include cells for expression slots and accounting system slots.

This setting allows you to configure what happens when you double-click an SCT cell. By default, double-clicking a cell opens it so you can edit the value directly.

Select if you want to prevent cells from being edited directly when they are double-clicked. Double-clicking a cell does the following:

Clear to use the SCT default behavior in which double-clicking a cell opens it for editing. See Edit slot values manually for details.

Select to enable full-precision data value editing in all SCT cells and the Value field on the SCT toolbar.

Clear to disable full-precision data value editing in cells and the Value field on the SCT toolbar. You can only edit values to the display precision.

Select to cause expression slots included in the SCT to fully evaluate across all timesteps whenever a single timestep value is edited. This causes the SCT to behave like a spreadsheet, where expression slot calculations are performed immediately after editing a value. For example, you might have an expression slot that sums the Outflows from multiple reservoirs. This checkbox allows you to see this sum each time you edit an Outflow.

Select one of the following options to indicate the type of slots that can be included in the SCT. An SCT can include either timeseries slots or integer-indexed slots, not both.

In the Cell Text area, select one or both of the following selections:
