Creating an OPERATE Activity

This describes how to create an OPERATE Activity.

Before you begin: Select the manikin and select a task, or create a new task.

Note: Modify the Track outside of an Operate activity, then this modification does not take into account during a simulation. You must have a Reach before launching the Operate.
