This configuration is a database object that needs

to be populated prior to setting up the simulation
00:22
to begin open a network and control in the background.
00:26
Then in the model group window, right,
00:28
click model group and select new generalized multi run group,
00:33
a generalized multi run group displays in the model group tree,
00:38
right?
00:38
Click the new generalized multi run group
00:41
and select new generalized multi run config
00:44
a new name dialogue displays
00:47
for this example, set the name to valve closures and then click OK
00:53

right? Click valve closures and select open
01:01
from the generalized multi run configuration dialogue test cases.
01:05
Tab you specify test cases in the grid.
01:09
You can enter the test cases manually.

Although a wizard is provided to make the creation of multiple test cases quicker
01:17
from the model group drag the valves selection list and drop
01:20
it into the selection list pane of the GMR configuration dialogue,
01:25
expand the object type dropdown. And choose valve control.
01:30
As soon as you do the test case grid populates with the corresponding object data.
01:35
Note that when you are using a selection list, the object must exist in the list.
01:41
Then test cases will be created for all objects of this type. In the list.
01:46
In this case, the wizard will not allow you to choose individual objects.
01:51
However, you can always delete unwanted test cases from the test case grid.
01:56
Select the fields to include in the test case
01:59
and if needed set the value for each parameter.
02:02
For this example,
02:03
select the opening percentage field and then set
02:06
the percentage to 0.0 in the value column.
02:10
In the test case name field, you can enter a name to be used for all test cases
02:15
for now. However, leave this field blank
02:18
enable the option, append
02:20
object id to test case name.
02:22
This uses the object id as a test case naming convention.
02:27
Click add
02:29
the test cases are created and appear in the grid.
02:32
Click save
02:34
be aware that if you give different test cases, the same name,
02:37
they will all be applied in the same run.

Test cases with different names will be applied in separate runs

In order to run a generalized multi-run simulation in InfoWorks WS Pro, the test cases must be configured first. The test cases provide results for different scenarios. This configuration is a database object that needs to be populated prior to setting up the simulation.
To set up test cases:
To specify multiple test cases in the grid of the Generalized Multi Run Configuration dialog box:
Note: When using a selection list, the object must exist in the list. Then, test cases will be created for all objects of that type in the list.
IMPORTANT: If different test cases are given the same name, they will all be applied in the same run. Test cases with different names will be applied in separate runs.
Note: The wizard will not allow selection of individual objects. However, unwanted test cases can be deleted from the test case grid.
To remove test cases from the grid:
