setting the genetic optimizer

[tinkerz]

Is there a way of increasing the number of inputs on the Genetic Optimizer, there is not much in the way of a tutorial.

I would like to know how to increase the inputs from 10 to 50 without generating the standard error message to increase the step size

Thanks

Hi Tinkerz,

What message are you getting when trying to optimize more than 10 inputs on Genetic optimizer? The same setup works here.

I cant remember the full message, as its running now, I just pressed ok and it continued.

I have alot of inputs more than 50, the message I think was saying I needed to increase the increment size.

When its finished the run I will post the message.

The message is

"Optimization Range decreased, the parameter settings exceed the max number of test combinations, for a complete optimization covering the full range please increase the increment steps on your prameters"

How do I know I am under the max number of test combinations?

This message is about the total number of tests. There is currently no way to increase this limit. Reducing the number of tests by working with increment or reducing the total min-max range of inputs is what's needed for the test to go through. I will forward your request to our product development team to see this limit increased. This has been assigned ID #1045. Thank you for the feedback.
