Message (.msg) Content

Settings → Solver → Output → More → Output Category → Message (.msg) Content
Selecting Message (.msg) Content as the Output Category in the Solver Settings dialog box lets you set the contents of the Message file. You only receive a message file when you are using External Adams Solver. Learn about setting the type of Adams Solver.
 
For the option:
Do the following:
Topology
Select to print model topological data in the message file.
Statistics
Prints a block of information for each kinematic, static, or dynamic step. This information helps you monitor the simulation process and locate the source of the error if there is a problem. Each step consists of two phases:
■A forward step in time (the predictor for dynamics)
■The solution of the equations of motion (the corrector for dynamics)
For more information, see the argument EPRINT in the DEBUG command in the Adams Solver online help.
Verbose
Prints additional information, such as the name of the subroutine from which Adams Solver sends each diagnostic, explanations, and possible remedies (when available). If you set Verbose to No, Adams Solver outputs only basic error messages.
