1. Ensure the calibrator and simulator diagrams are synchronized
2. Open the calibrator diagram & simulator diagrams in Documenter
3. In the simulator diagram, run one calculator forward
4. In the calibrator diagram, touch the informants and measures to trigger the model to output the informants
   1. Go into any one informant under the informants tab and click OK
   2. Go into any measure under the measures tab and click OK
   3. Note: The calibrator versions of the informants and measures are the authority versions and the simulator ones may get out of sync
5. In the calibrator diagram, run all calculators forward
6. In the simulator diagram, run all calculators forward
7. In the simulator diagram, run all calculators backward
8. In the simulator diagram, create the loading files for SAMM
   1. Choose menu item SAMM > Loading files > Framework…
   2. Click “simulator with calibrator” button
   3. Make sure the “informants” check box is OFF!!
   4. Click OK
9. In the calibrator diagram, create the loading files for SAMM
   1. Choose menu item SAMM > Loading files > Framework…
   2. Click “calibrator” button
   3. Make sure the “informants” check box is ON!!
   4. Click OK

1. Open SAMM and login under model account
2. Create a new model family
   1. Choose menu item MF Actions > Create OR right click in Model Families window and choose Create
   2. “MB name” should be a string with no spaces or strange characters. It is Often related to the ModelBase name in the root of the model but it does not have to be.
   3. Fill in an English description.
   4. Click OK
3. Enter the Model Family by double clicking on it. A check mark appears in the Model Families window.
4. Setup the default file path
   1. Choose menu item File > Set File Path…
   2. 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)
5. Load the simulator and calibrator frameworks
   1. Choose menu item FW Actions > Load OR right click and select Load (note the location is what you set in step 4)
   2. MB name: MUST be the model base name from the root of the simulation diagram, give it the description “sim”
   3. Adjust your default file path to the cal location (e.g. /models/tcteem/V5/cal)
   4. Repeat loading framework for cal BUT choose the check button to say it is a calibration framework, use the MB name from the calibration diagram, and enter “cal” as the description
6. Load informants
   1. Choose menu item Windows > Informants
   2. Right click and select Load (path should be correct because of 5c)
   3. Adjust the file location if it is incorrect (should be something like /models/tcteem/V5/cal/informs.samm)

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 Properties, then choose the notes button. Here's a template of how to run the recipe and produce a hisotry:

1. Load the views in the views window
   1. Setup the default file path to the views directory (e.g. /models/tcteem/V5/cal/views)
   2. Choose menu item View Actions > Load OR right click and select Load
2. 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.
3. 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
   1. Right click on the tracking history scenario in the scenarios window and choose “Evaluate history inputs”
4. Evaluate history outputs for your tracking history - this runs the simulator frame work over historic time and produces the history scenario
   1. Right click on the tracking history scenario in the scenarios window and choose “Evaluate history outputs”
   2. Name your historic scenario, we usually just use the name “history” - this will show up in the simulation frame work
