 +  -Open the calibrator and simulator diagrams in Documenter 
 +  -In the simulator diagram, run one calculator forward 
 +  -In the calibrator diagram, touch the informants and measures to trigger the model to output the informants 
 +    -Go into any one informant under the informants tab and click OK 
 +    -Go into any measure under the measures tab and click OK 
 +    -Note: The calibrator versions of the informants and measures are the authority versions and the simulator ones may get out of sync 
 +  -In the calibrator diagram, run all calculators forward

 +    -Fill in an English description. 
 +    -Click OK 
 +  -Enter the Model Family by double clicking on it.  A check mark appears in the Model Families window. 
 +  -Setup the default file path 
 +    -Choose menu item File > Set File Path... 
 +    -This is a unix style path so use forward slashes and direct it to the location of the simulator ​files (e.g. /​models/​tcteem/​V5/​sim) 
 +  -Load the simulator and calibrator frameworks 
 +    -Choose menu item FW Actions > Load OR right click and select Load (note the location is what you set in step 4) 
 +    -MB name: MUST be the model base name from the root of the simulation ​diagram, ​give it the description “sim” 
 +    -Click OK to load the simulation framework 
 +    -Choose menu item FW Actions > Load OR right click and select Load again (note you need to adjust your default file path to the cal location (e.g. /​models/​tcteem/​V5/​cal) 
 +    -Enter the MB name from the calibration diagram, and enter "​cal"​ as the description 
 +    -Activate the calibration framework check box 
 +    -Click OK to load the calibration framework 
 +  -Load informants 
 +    -Choose menu item Windows > Informants 
 +    -Ensure the file path points to the cal location (the path should read something like /​models/​tcteem/​V5/​cal/​informs.samm)
  
-4In the calibrator ​diagram, ​touch the informants ​and measures ​to trigger ​the model to output ​the informants+===== Run Calibration to Produce a History ===== 
 +This part of the process depends on your individual model By convention we keep a loading recipe in the notes for the root node in the diagram.  In Documentor right click on the root node and go to Propertiesthen choose ​the notes button. ​ Here's a template of how to run the recipe ​and produce a hisotry: 
 +  -Load the views in the views window 
 +    -Setup the default file path to the views directory (e.g. /​models/​tcteem/​V5/​cal/​views) 
 +    -Choose menu item View Actions > Load OR right click and select Load 
 +  -Follow the recipe which will likely involve loading a source history, running some feedback views and saving scenarios as you go and the final one will be your tracking history. 
 +  -Evaluate history ins for your tracking history - this prepares all the calibrator inputs and data needed for the simulator ​to be run over historic time 
 +    -Right click on the tracking history scenario in the scenarios window and choose "​Evaluate history inputs"​ 
 +  -Evaluate history outputs for your tracking history - this runs the simulator frame work over historic time and produces the history scenario 
 +    -Right click on the tracking history scenario in the scenarios window and choose "​Evaluate history outputs"​ 
 +    -Name your historic scenario, we usually just use the name "​history"​ - this will show up in the simulation frame work
