3.4 → Chapter 5: User’s Guide for the PEARL User Interface
3.4.1
→ Section 5.1: Overview of the PEARL database
The new GUI uses an Interbase database and installs Interbase on subdirectories within the
tree of subdirectories of the PEARL package; thus the new GUI can work without Microsoft
Access.
3.4.2
→ Section 5.6 The main form
The main form consists of five tabs, i.e. a scenario tab, a simulation control tab, an output
control tab, a SWAP hydrological module tab and a run status tab (See Figure 1;
FOCUS_PEARL_1.1.1. Manual Figure 21).
Figure 1 The main form of the PEARL user interface
On the ‘SWAP hydrological module’ tab, the user has to specify the option to consider
hysteresis or not and the minimum pressure head to switch drying/wetting (cm). This option is
switched off for FOCUS scenarios.
A facility has been added to generate an overview report of all runs in a project. After clicking
on the button 'Reports', the user has to specify whether only the run selected is reported or all
runs in the same project (project summary).
