i want to implement a pv system that has different voltage output for each hour of the day. I want to know what is the command in OpenDSS to solve the circuit one hour at a time with out uesing monitor. i need to have 24 different files at the end of the simulation to verify the voltage and current doesn't exceed the limits given for the circuit
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Generally, you will be in Mode=Daily and you will have assign a loadshape to the Daily property of Loads and Generators (and PVSystems).
Then you simply set Number=1 and the program will solve one time step for each solve command. With Matlab, VBA, or Python, you can query many things in the circuit through the COM interface. There is a good Python example of how to do this here:

Thanks alot but I am using matlab to run OpenDSS
so if there some way to do it in matlab ?
