(method)


This method executes the Save Circuit command from the COM interface. Saves the reduced circuit in a directory with the specified name. The full path name of the Master.DSS file is return in the DSSText.Result property.


Example


% Create DSS object

DSSObject = actxserver('OpenDSSEngine.DSS')

if ~DSSObject.Start(0),

                    disp('Unable to start openDSS');

                    return

end;

DSSText = DSSObject.Text;

DSSCircuit = DSSObject.ActiveCircuit;

% Compile a model        

DSSText.Command = 'Compile C:\myPath\myModel.dss';

DSSReduceCkt = DSSCircuit.ReduceCkt;

DSSMeters = DSSCircuit.Meters;

% gets the names of the first EM on the list

i = DSSMeters.First;

myEM = DSSMeters.Name;


% set the EM name for the reduction

DSSReduceCkt.EnergyMeter = myEM;

% command to keep load 

DSSReduceCkt.KeppLoad = true;

% breaks loops first

DSSReduceCkt.DoLoopBreak();

% merge parallel lines

DSSReduceCkt.DoParallelLines();

% reduce 

DSSReduceCkt.DoDefault();


% get the OpenDSS command

myStr = DSSReduceCkt.EditString;


% Saves the circuit after reduction

DSSReduceCkt.SaveCircuit('myNewCircuit');
