Speeding Up Simulations

Debug Mode and Fast Mode

By default, 20-sim models are simulated in the debug mode, which is indicated by the Debug Mode button at the left top of the Simulator. In the Debug Mode the Simulator, checks on divisions by zero and all other kinds of problems and gives proper warnings when something goes wrong. This is very help for debugging a model but slow down the speed of the Simulator considerably.

If your model runs fine you can change the Debug Mode button to Fast Mode . Now 20-sim will use all tricks to give you the highest simulation speed possible.

Settings

•	In the Editor you can click Settings - Model - Processing to open the General Properties and see the checks and settings for the Debug Mode and Fast Mode. Changing these settings is only recommended for expert users!

•	In the Editor you can click Settings - Model - Simulator to change the instruction set used by the CPU during simulation in Fast Mode. Changing this setting is only recommended for expert users!
