====== "freeze, unfreeze" commands ====== ===== Purpose ===== "Freeze" to a point in time. Remember circuit voltages and currents. ===== Syntax ===== freeze unfreeze ===== Comments ===== After the freeze command, the transient and fourier analysis will continue from the values that were kept by the freeze command, instead of progressing every time. This allows reruns from the same starting point, which may be at any time, not necessarily 0. ===== Examples ===== transient 0 1 .01 A transient analysis starting at zero, running until 1 second, with step size .01 seconds. After this run, the clock is at 1 second. freeze Remember the time, voltages, currents, etc. transient Another transient analysis. It continues from 1 second, to 2 seconds. (It spans 1 second, as before.) This command was not affected by the freeze command. transient This will do exactly the same as the last one. From 1 second to 2 seconds. If it were not for freeze, it would have started from 2 seconds. transient 1.5 .001 Try again with smaller steps. Again, it starts at 1 second. unfreeze Release the effect of freeze. transient Exactly the same as the last time, as if we didn't unfreeze. (1 to 1.5 seconds.) transient This one continues from where the last one left off: at 1.5 seconds. From now on, time will move forward.
