Mathematical Models

Adjustment From File

With Columbus 4.5, simply define all adjustment parameters, data, overrides, etc., in one data file and adjust. There’s no need to alter the UI settings because your network is completely defined within your input file. Using this archived data file, you can easily repeat the same adjustment at any time.
