Include external data source

Post by moudi »

Hi

I have a question regarding use of an external data source. You will find attached a model where I used both the internal and the external data source, which give identical simulation results. My question goes towards the input of a table function. I used the format indicated in the table (X1,Y1),...,(Xn,Yn), which seemed to work properly.

However, how could I do this in a more automatised version, instead of doing it manually?

Thanks! :-)

I can see the model, but the CHD diagnosis test model1.xlsx file is missing from the archive.

Just to be clear: you want to automate providing a different lookup shape for each entity, via the input data?

Hi

Yes, that is what I would like to have. I just upload the file.

It looks like there's a bug that prevents reading the lookups from the initialization data - I've put in a ticket for that.
