— set up input parameters
Input file is needed for mode 2; For mode 3, 5 and 7, shot number and time
slices are needed. Also you can click ‘TimePicker’ button, which currently
only runs on hestia, eos, lohan4 and lohan5 due to library dependence, to
choose the shot number and time slice you are interested in. Default value of
time step and number of time slices are both set to 1. For mode 7, snap file
name extension is needed. For mode 3, 5 and 7, if input file input entry is left
empty, EFIT will try to find the snap file in your working directory.
Otherwise, the snap file in /link/efit area will be used. You can also fetch the
snap file from MDS+ by clicking the ‘Fetch’ button. Click ‘Edit’ button to
