Set-up and Defaults

Set-up and Defaults may be accessed from the main REP window. Various parameters which control the calculation procedure and the environment are entered here. The parameters are all stored in files which the program reads when it first starts up.

Set-up Menu

There are two key categories in which set-up parameters exist: those which are particular to a user (User options), and those which concern all users (Installation).

Mostly, installation parameters concern operating parameters which should not normally be changed. For example, it is a serious problem if some users in a company are using one risking scheme and others another. Therefore, the risking scheme is an installation parameter which will have been agreed by big shots in the corporation and should be changed only if you have another job to go to.

For more information on individual set-up tools, see our topics on each specific section.
