Catalogues and Specifications Reference Manual

Keywords:	MODEL SETTINGS
Function:	Sets default component parameters and design data attributes.
Description:	Sets default values for component parameters and specimen values for other classes of parameters (see Catalogue Database Structure). Also sets design data attributes; the numeric attributes may be used in place of parameters for defining Pointsets and Geomsets.
	Values entered in model settings are accepted with or without unit qualifiers. Model design data attributes (e.g. DDANG, BORE, DDHEI) will only accept dimensionally compatible units and when used in expression evaluated inside Paragon dimension consistency checks will be made. If entered unqualified the system will assume the value is in the current working units.
	Model parameters will accept unit qualifier values and will store the values in the appropriate database units. However the actual physical quantity is not be stored (unlike actual catalogue and design parameters) and so when expressions using the model parameters are evaluated in paragon no dimension error checking is performed. Such checking IS performed when evaluating expressions using these parameters in other modules (design, draft etc.)
