During simulation, this window will be on top. It is the entry for a variety of debugging tools.

You can move and resize so that it interferes as little as possible with the Display. It is also recommended that you close the Structure Window during simulation.

| Override timers and pauses in Simulation Percentage of Timers This will NOT accelerate robot movements. This will also affect pauses and Output timers. Timers under 6 seconds will not be affected. Minimum value Maximum value The time a basket remains in a basket position. The timers for minimum residence time are typically set to 3 - 6 minutes in a program. Here you can define a percentage to speed up the simulation.
