Synchronizing Variable Sweep Definitions

By default, variable sweep definitions are nested. Alternatively, you can synchronize the variable sweep definitions if they have the same number of sweep points.

For example, if you synchronize a sweep definition that includes values of 1, 2, and 3 inches with a second sweep definition that includes values of 4, 5, and 6 inches, HFSS will solve 3 design variations. The first variation is solved at the variable values of 1 and 4; the second variation is solved at the variable values 2 and 5; and the third variation is solved at the final variable values 3 and 6.

To synchronize variable sweep definitions:

1. Under the Sweep Definitions tab of the Setup Sweep Analysis dialog box, select the rows containing the sweep definitions you want to synchronize.

2. Click Sync.

The synchronized sweeps are given a group number, which is listed in the Sync # column.

Optionally, view the design variations that are to be solved in table format under the Table tab.
