HFSS15: Reassigning Excitations

You can reassign an excitation to another surface. This is useful when you have modified objects with assigned excitations, invalidating the excitations. For example, if you unite two objects with assigned excitations, the second object’s excitation will become invalid because united objects maintain the characteristics of the first object selected. In this case, you would need to reassign the excitation or delete it.

1. Select the object or object face to which you want to assign an existing excitation.

2. Click HFSS>Excitations>Reassign.

The Reassign Excitation window appears.

3. Select an existing excitation from the list, and then click OK.

The excitation is reassigned to the object or object face.

Note: When reassigning an excitation that includes vectors in its definition, HFSS attempts to preserve the vectors with the new assignment, but this is not always possible.
