SCP Engine

The SCP Engine configuration was covered in the section "Configuring a New Simulation." If you skipped that section, follow these steps to add an SCP Engine. Include only one SCP Engine per SCP computer. When the SCP Engine starts, it searches for all active Control Processor (CP) instances, and places those instances in ‘slave mode’ to the SimExec. If you plan to start another CP instance, shut down the simulation start the CP instance and restart the simulation.
