Appendix K — TEF Commands

The TUFLOW Event File (.tef) contains commands related to Event Management functionality. It is read into the .tcf using the Event File command. For more information on the .tef, see Section 4.1.10. Event management is discussed in Section 13.2.1. All commands listed in Appendix A and Appendix B can be read into the .tef. The additional .tef specific commands are listed below. For an explanation of the command syntax, see Commands.

K.1 TEF Commands

Define Event == <event_name>

Status: Optional
Solver: Classic and HPC

Starts a block of .tcf and .ecf commands for an event named <event_name>. Only one block can be specified for each unique event_name. Use End Define to terminate the block. An ERROR occurs if End Define is not specified.

For information on Events, see Section 13.2.1. An example of using Events is given in the TUFLOW Wiki Tutorial 9.

End Define
