RAM Structural System Help

Model Status

Because it is a fully integrated system, the RAM Structural System modules are dependent upon each other's data and results. Often changes to in one module invalidate the results of one or more of the other modules. Model Status tracks these dependencies and provides feedback on each module's current state.

The File > Model Status command brings up a dialog that displays the current modules state. If the module's indicator light is anything other than green, the dialog contains an explanation of the state of the model.

In RAM Manager, the File > Model Status command will list the status of each of the modules. This dialog provides a more in-depth explanation of the model’s status than that provided by the status indicator lights.
