Arguments

sensor_name: The variable name of the sensor.; Data type: varname
EXPR|USER: Indicates if the main expression for the sensor will be described directly by an expression or by a user subroutine.
`expr|user_sub expr`: The expression or string for the call to the user subroutine.
value: The value that the main expression will be compared against.; Data type: real
"LE|EQ|GE": The sensor will be triggered when the value is within error, either less than, equal to, or greater than.
error: The tolerance where the main sensor expression and value have to differ within, in order for the sensor to be triggered.; Data type: real
"CODGEN|NO_CODGEN": Causes the solver to generate a new pivot sequence if set to CODGEN.
dtval: Resets the solver printout steps to this value.; Data type: real
"HALT|NO_HALT": Causes the solver to stop simulation if set to HALT.
"PRINT|NO_PRINT": Causes results to be written to the output files at the time when the sensor is triggered.
"RESTART|NO_RESTART": Causes the solver to restart if the sensor is triggered.
"RETURN|NO_RETURN": Causes the solver to return to the command input for simulation to continue.
stepsize: Resets the stepsize to this if the sensor is triggered.; Data type: real
"YYDUMP|NO_YYDUMP": Causes the solver to export the state variable vector.
"EVALUATE|NO_EVALUATE": Determines if an evaluation of an expression will occur when a sensor is triggered, and if the expression is determined by a user subroutine or direct expression.
`expr|user expr`: The expression or string for the user subroutine call that defines the expression to be evaluated.
sensor_name.use_local_dll: Specifies if a user subroutine DLL is specific to the instance of one sensor entity.; Data type: boolean
sensor_name.local_dll: The path and filename for the user subroutine DLL to be used with an instance of the user defined sensor.; Data type: string
