Animation Options

Adams Controls lets you choose one of two animation modes: interactive or batch. Both methods allow you to save results to Adams files for review at a later date.

Method:	Its purpose:
Interactive mode	■Specifies the simulation to run in Adams View. ■Provides a dynamic, graphic display of the simulation results. ■Allows you to pause during a simulation to review any animation or plotting results. ■Allows you to verify the initial design of your control law for proper signal phase and magnitude. ■Not supported by Adams Car Full-Vehicle analyses.
Batch mode	■Specifies that the simulation run in Adams Solver. This is the preferred method if a graphic display of the analysis results is unnecessary, since it provides a much faster solve time. ■Supported by Adams Car Full-Vehicle analyses.
