Cadence environment variable

Does anybody know which environment set the value of rabsshort used in DC and transient simulation? The simulator engine is spectre. Thanks

    I don't believe there's a specific field on the form for this, so you'd have to go to Simulator->Options->Analog and then on the Miscellaneous tab in the Additional Parameters field enter rabsshort=XXX (whatever you want).

    If you're asking for a cdsenv setting for the same field, you can use:

    spectre.opts additionalArgs string "rabsshort=XXX"

    Regards,

    Andrew.

     Thank you Andrew for the prompt reply. I am just wondering, what does the parameter rabsshort represent?

    That's a bit odd - you're asking how to set it, but don't know what it's for! So why do you want to set it?

    From the UNIX command line, "spectre -h options" will tell you about this option (and others).
