Post by sol »

Dear HYSPLIT Users

I already know 'hycs_std.exe' file is exe file for run hysplit/concentration simulation.
but i can not find which is 'exe'file for edit Particle/puff release number limits.
I want to know what '.exe' file is about 'advanced/configuration setup/concentration/Set particle/puff RELEASE NUMBER limits' menu?

Thank you for your reply Ma'am
But actually i already checked manual which you posted.
In the manual, I couldn't find the command file name or control file name which i have to adjust to change the number of maximum particles.
That is why i asked you in the hysplit forum.
So, please let me know what should i do to change the number of maximum particle value in the CMD(COMMAND PROMPT).
I used 'hycs_std.exe'. but it doesn't have options about 'number of maximum particle' stuff.
I really need your help.
Thank you.

The advanced menu items are set in the SETUP.CFG file.
file parameters can be found here.

The particular ones you are looking for are
MAXPAR
NUMPAR
https://ready.arl.noaa.gov/hysplitusersguide/S623.htm

There is no executable to set the options in SETUP.CFG. It is a text file and
can simply be edited or written with a script. The GUI program simply writes this file based on
inputs set in the GUI.

Hope that helps.
