Note: If the Sets if a failed "Reload on run" will stop the current run button in the Data Sources toolbar is enabled (it is shown enabled in Figure 3), and the data source cannot be found, the scenario run will fail. However, if this icon is toggled off, Source will continue to use the data in its internal store, regardless of whether the source file can be found or the source scenario has been run yet.

Once configured, a file data source may group several time series data files together; up to one file per scenario input set. Assign a file data source to root-level scenario input set(s) as follows:

  • Open the Load file data source dialog (Figure 4) either by creating a new data source or editing an existing one (see Loading a file data source for more information).
  • The first time series data file you load is associated with all scenario input sets that exist when it is loaded. 
  • For each additional time series data file you want to add to the data source:
    • Create a new tab by clicking the Add New Tab button. By default new tabs are not associated with any scenario input sets.
    • Load the time series data file (see Loading a file data source for more information)

      Note: Each time series data file must contain the same number of time series columns as the other files in that data source, in the same order.

  • Choose the scenario input set(s) to associate with each time series data file by selecting the tab's drop-down menu and toggling the check box next to the appropriate scenario input set(s). The associated scenario input sets are listed in the tab's heading. For example, in Figure 4, Flows.csv is associated with Default Input Set and Dry Weather. Source will warn you if you assign more than one time series data file to the same scenario input set. 
  • The check box next to the tab name determines which time series data file Source will use to name the time series columns; only one of the tabs can be toggled on. If none of the check boxes are selected, the column names from the file in the first tab will be used.
    The default name of the data source will be the file name in the first tab. Both the data source and the time series columns can be renamed in the Data Source Explorer (see above). 

Assign a scenario data source to scenario input set(s) as explained for a file data sources, but use a new tab for each input scenario.
