Notes: Read/Write

Retrieve or set the current simulation running speed.

Simulation Methods

Method	Description	See also
BroadcastSignal(string sSignalName, string sParameters)	Boolean Notes: Send a signal into the running simulation. If the simulation is stopped, do nothing. Parameters: sSignalName: String - the name of the signal OR the GUID of the Signal element sParameters: String - a string of one or more signal parameters, in this format: {parameter1: 5, parameter2: "test", parameter3: 3.2}	Dynamic Simulation with Javascript
IsSimulatorRunning()	Boolean Notes: Check the state of the simulation. Returns True if the simulation is running; returns False if the simulation is stopped.
Pause()	Boolean Notes: Pause the simulation if it is running.	Run Model Simulation
Start()	Boolean Notes: Start the simulation based on the current selection. If the current simulation is in a paused state, then the simulation is resumed.
StepIn()	Boolean Notes: Step In to the routine in the current simulation.
StepOut()	Boolean Notes: Step Out of the routine in the current simulation.
StepOver()	Boolean Notes: Step Over the routine in the current simulation.
Stop()	Boolean Notes: Stop the simulation.
