Create [Output Monthly] records: sets flags #22 and #25 in iePRNT.dat which signals EPIC3060 to create .MWC and .MSW monthly output files. Reads .MSW file into table [Output Monthly].
Prebuild control record list: If on, reads all control records when the program is started. If not, records are read as needed when you move forward through the list.
Generate dynamic runoff curve numbers for operations: If on, curve numbers (Parameter 3 in [Field Operations]) are calculated dynamically.
Tillage adjustment to runoff curve number: If on, dynamically calculated runoff curve numbers are multiplied by 0.9 if tillage is 4 (No Till) and 0.95 if tillage is 3 (Mulch Till).
Write daily general output file: If on, a "1" is written to the "DGN" flag of the PRNT3060.DAT file, which causes EPIC3060 to create the .DGN output file.
Run EPIC in visible console:
Dynamic crop growth climate adjustment: This affects how PARM(40) is
written to ieParm.dat. If selected, i_EPIC calculates this value from the
record's weather station information using this formula:
(Average temp, degrees C / Average precip, mm) * 100.0
If not selected, i_EPIC just writes "Crop Growth Climate Adjustment" from the
[Parameters] table.
Assimilate soil output from SOT file (3060 only): If on, reads the .SOT file and overwrites soil layer data with its values.
Save annual output for years...: Only output years in the given range are saved to tables [Output Annual], [Output Annual crop Yields], [Output Soil Carbon Nitrogen Annual] and [Output Soil Carbon Nitrogen Annual Layers].
Save initial conditions output as year 0: If on, saves the initial conditions given in the .ACN file as year 0 in tables [Output Soil Carbon Nitrogen Annual] and [Output Soil Carbon Nitrogen Annual Layers].
EPIC output files named for control record ID (1015 and newer): If on, EPICRUN.DAT is modified to tell EPIC to use EPICnnnn.* for its output filenames, where nnnn is each control record's ID.
