Reverting to Initial Parameter Values

How do I quit an optimization and revert to my initial parameter values?

  • Before running an optimization, do one of the following:

    • In the Response Optimizer, click Options. Uncheck Update model at end of optimization in the General Options tab.

    • In the Response Optimizer, click Options. Select Save optimized variable values as new design variable set in the General Options tab.

    • Make a copy of the design variable set in the Data area.

    If you want to revert to the initial parameter values after the optimization terminates or you stop the optimization by clicking Stop, select the design variable that contains the initial values in the Design Variable Set drop-down list and click adjacent to Design variables Set. Select the design variables in the dialog box and click Update model variable values to revert the model parameters to their original values.

  • When using the Control System Designer, the Start Optimization button becomes a Stop Optimization button after the optimization has begun. To quit the optimization, click the Stop Optimization button. To revert to the initial parameter values, select Edit > Undo Optimize compensators from the menu in the Control System Designer.
