When all parameters are acceptable (LED's all green), the program gives access to the hourly simulation.

Simulation dates are based on the Measured data file dates, and can be restricted to a limited period.

Besides the "Online graphs" and "Output files" decribed for the usual simulation, you should also define the "Comparison" requirements, i.e. which simulation variable has to be associated to each measured data, and under which constraints.

Then the simulation process, beyond accumulating graphs as for pure simulation, will also accumulate couples of comparable data in hourly or daily values.

After completion, the simulation/comparison allows to open the "Results" dialog.

Simulation results for a particular "variant" can be stored, with all involved parameters, in a file named as the project's file, with the extension .CMi  (i = 0..9, A..Z).

In the Report Preview dialog, you can compare in detail reports of two different Projects / Variants.
