(read/write)


This property sets/gets the simulation seconds as an integer. Does not include decimal part.


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';

DSSSolution = DSSCircuit.Solution;


% set the control iterations to 1000

DSSSolution.ControlIterations = 1000; 

% set simulation mode daily

DSSSolution.Mode = 1;

% set simulation step size 1 h

DSSSolution.StepSize = 1;


% set simulation hour 1

DSSSolution.Hour = 1; 

% set simulation secs = 60 (1 min)

DSSSolution.Seconds = 60; 

% Solve the model

DSSSolution.Solve(); 


% gets the new hour we are located

myHour = DSSSolution.Hour;
