Please Tell me to Create accelerometer using TCL. 

Steps followed manually:

1. Right click in entity browser and create accelerometer.

2. In the entity editor, go nodes option. select a base node (N1) and x-axis node as N2 and the adjacent as N3. That is accelerometers should orient along global axis.

    Hi Jouher,

     

    Set the node IDs based on your axis. 

     

    *createentity accelerometers name=accelerometer1
    *setvalue accelerometers name=accelerometer1 STATUS=2 multi_nodes={nodes 900 1504 1537}
