Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to this spoken tutorial on OpenModelica Connectors.
00:06	In this tutorial, we will learn to: Create a new class , Open an existing class , Connect, different classes , Build a model and Simulate the model.
00:22	To record this tutorial, I am using OpenModelica version 1.11.0 and Ubuntu Linux OS 14.04
00:34	But, the process demonstrated in this tutorial is identical in other OS such as- Windows, Mac OS X or FOSSEE OS on ARM .
00:47	To practice this tutorial, you need to know about OMEdit. The Prerequisite tutorials are mentioned on our website.
00:57	RLC_Circuit file used in the tutorial is provided as a code file on our site.
01:04	Download the files from Code Files link.
01:09	I have already opened the OMEdit window.
01:13	Now we will discuss how to create a new model.
01:18	First we will create a new class. So go to the File menu and select New Modelica Class.
01:27	Create New Modelica Class window appears.
01:31	In the Name field, enter the name of the class which we want to create.
01:37	I will enter the name as Sample.
01:41	In the Specialization field, select the type of class you wish to create. I will choose Class.
01:50	Then click on OK.
01:53	A new class will be created with the given name.
01:57	We will learn more about classes in the upcoming tutorials.
02:02	Now we will save this class.
02:05	For this, right-click on Sample class and click on Save.
02:11	Choose an appropriate location to save this file.
02:15	Let's close the Sample file. Right-click on Sample and select Unload.
02:22	Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box that appears.
02:27	Now we shall learn how to open an existing class.
02:32	To open a class, go to the File menu. Then click on Open Model/Library File.
02:40	Select the desired file you wish to open.
02:44	I will choose RLC_Circuit.mo file downloaded earlier from Code files.
02:52	Click on the Open button.
02:55	Now we will learn about Connectors.
02:59	A Connector is a way for one model to exchange information with another model.
03:07	Use of Connectors:
03:09	Connectors are used in: Connections , Communication ,Coupling between component and outside world.
03:17	Next, we will learn to connect classes.
03:20	For this, I will use RLC_Circuit file which we opened earlier.
03:28	RLC_Circuit is a Modelica package containing different classes.
03:34	Let’s expand the package.
03:37	Here we can see various classes,' namely, Ground, VoltageSource , Resistor , Capacitor and Inductor
03:49	and also a connector named Pin
03:53	We will learn more about classes and connectors in upcoming tutorials in this series.
04:00	This package also contains a circuit class.
04:05	Double-click on the circuit file and go to the Text view.
04:11	Here we can see that the class does not contain any code.
04:17	Now go to Diagram View.
04:20	Let us place all the blocks/components in the grid area.Then we will connect them.
04:29	Click on Resistor and drag and drop it into the grid space.
04:35	We get a message, Enter Component Name.
04:38	In the Name field, enter the component name as R and click OK.
04:47	Click on Inductor Drag and drop it into the grid space and place it next to the Resistor
04:56	Enter the component name as L and click OK.
05:02	Click on Capacitor Drag and drop it into the grid space and place it next to the Inductor
05:10	Enter the component name as C and click OK.
05:15	Next, click on VoltageSource and drag and drop it into the grid space.
05:22	Place it above the R, L and C which are placed in series.
05:28	Enter the component name as ACVoltage.
05:32	Note that, please do not put any space in the component name field.
05:38	It will give translation error at the time of simulation. Now click OK.
05:45	Next, click on Ground and drag and drop it into the grid space.
05:52	Place it below the R, L and C components in series.
05:57	Enter the component name as G and click OK.
06:02	Now we have all the required components to construct the RLC Circuit in series.
06:09	Let's connect these components.
06:12	Hover the mouse to the left part of component.
06:16	A pop up RLC underscore Circuit dot pin p appears.
06:22	This represents positive pin.
06:25	Similarly, the right part of component shows a pop up as RLC underscore Circuit dot pin n.
06:34	This represents negative pin.
06:37	Place the cursor over the negative pin of the Resistor.
06:42	We can see a '+' sign when the cursor is placed over n pin.
06:48	Click on the pin.
06:49	Hold and drag it to the p pin of the Inductor.
06:54	Click on Inductor's p pin and then release the cursor.
07:01	Next, we will connect n pin of the Inductor with the p pin of the Capacitor.
07:08	Click on the n pin of the Inductor.
07:11	Hold and drag it to the p pin of the Capacitor.
07:15	Click on the p pin of the Capacitor.
07:20	Now we have connected the Resistor, Inductor and Capacitor in series.
07:28	Next step is to provide the VoltageSource.
07:32	Click on the p pin of the Resistor.
07:36	Hold and drag it to the p pin of the VoltageSource.
07:42	Similarly, we will connect the n pin of the Capacitor with the n pin of the VoltageSource.
07:50	Click on the n pin of the Capacitor.
07:53	Hold and drag it to the n pin of the VoltageSource.
07:58	Click on the n pin and release the cursor.
08:03	Next step is to Ground the circuit.
08:07	Click on the n pin of the VoltageSource.
08:11	Hold and drag it to the Ground.
08:14	Note that Ground has got only one pin which is the p pin.
08:20	Click on it and release the cursor. Now the circuit is complete.
08:25	Pause the tutorial and check that your circuit looks like mine.
08:33	Press CTRL S to save the class.
08:37	Now we will check for the correctness of the class.
08:41	Click on Check All Models button.
08:45	Observe the Messages Browser.
08:49	It shows the number of equations and the number of variables.
08:53	Model will be ready to simulate if both of them are equal.
08:58	Click on the Simulate button. A new window appears.
09:03	This output window displays the success message.
09:09	Expand R and click on Ir to get the plot between Ir and time.
09:18	We will learn about Equations and Variables in the upcoming tutorials.
09:24	That's all for this tutorial. Let's summarize.
09:28	In this tutorial, we have learnt to, Create a new class , Open an existing class , Connect different classes , Build a Model and Simulate the Model .
09:43	As an assignment- Construct a RLC Circuit where: Resistor, Inductor and Capacitor are in parallel connection.
09:53	Use the same classes and connector available in the RLC_Circuit package.
10:01	This is the diagram of the circuit which needs to be constructed.
10:07	Watch the video available at the following link.http://spoken-tutorial.org/It summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project.
