The PTM model control is used to create the program control file, which contains general simulation options. Refer to the PTM manual[SMS:PTM#External_Links] for a more detailed description of how these parameters affect the model results.

Time

The time tab is used to specify time information to be written to the program control file. If a control on the dialog is not enabled, the corresponding keyword will not be written to the program control file. Controls on the dialog are disabled based on the options you have chosen on the other model control tabs. For example, if no trap file is specified on the files tab, the time controls related to traps will not be available. There is a plot on the dialog of the specified times.

Files

The files tab is used to specify input and output file information to be written to the program control file.

Pressing the "Create input file9s) from data..." button on the Files tab will open the Create PTM External Input Files dialog.

Computations

The computations tab is used to specify model computation options to be written to the program control file.

Output

The output tab is used to specify model output options to be written to the program control file.
