CST2013: Make Voltage Monitor From Curve

Simulation: MonitorsVoltage Monitor

A voltage monitor from a curve can be defined for time domain calculations only.

The ”Make Voltage Monitor From Curve” dialog box appears if a curve item has been selected in the Voltage Monitor Mode. This curve defines the path of the voltage monitor. However, because the fields are known exactly only on grid edges, a grid mapped version of the path will be used for the integration rather than the original path. Change to the mesh view to see the mapped path.

The results of a voltage monitor are accessible through the 1D Results folder of the navigation tree. There, the time dependent signals and their Fourier-transformed frequency dependent representation can be accessed.

Name

In this text field, the name of the voltage monitor can be specified.

Invert orientation

Every curve item has its own orientation. In the main view, it is visualized by a small arrow somewhere on the curve. Mark this check button to invert the orientation. Inverting the orientation results in a negation of the time signals.

OK

Creates the voltage monitor and closes the dialog.

Cancel

Closes this dialog box.
