halting analysis if a nodal value is reached 1

[cagrisever]

I'd like to stop the simulation when nodal tempeatures at a region reach a predefined value. I had a look at 6.6 documentation and have some idea as:

*EXTREME VALUE, HALT=YES
*EXTREME NODE VALUE, NSET= , TEMP MAX=800

However, documentation is not so obvious in this subject. Could you please help with that. Do you think the above statement will work with a transient solution or do you have another idea.
Thanks for your time.

Hi

Looks pretty easy to use to be honest;

*EXTREME NODE VALUE, NSET=MyNodes
NT, 800

The key is setting the right output identifier and value on the data line. Section 4.2.2 of the Analysis Users Manual covers the available output identifiers quite well.
