My computer has an accelerator in FEKO. I want to speed up FEKO solver using the accelerator. It says to use --use gpu in the CADFEKO command line. I don't know how to access the command line. How do I do this ?

    You don't need the command line. You can enable from the CADFEKO or POSTFEKO:

    Note that the GPU is mostly used for the FDTD (time domain) solver.

    To do this from the command line only, open a Feko terminal (click below on the right)

    and then run for example:

    runfeko mymodelname --feko-options --use-gpu
