18.6.9 Controlling job precision

To locate the job editor, select JobEditjobname from the main menu bar. Use the Precision tabbed page to control the precision of the ABAQUS/Explicit analysis product or the precision of nodal output. You can do the following:

Select either the single or double precision version of ABAQUS/Explicit. This option is equivalent to the double option in the ABAQUS/Explicit execution procedure.
Select either single or full nodal output precision. This option is equivalent to the output_precision option in the ABAQUS execution procedure.

For more information, see “Execution procedure for ABAQUS/Standard and ABAQUS/Explicit,” Section 3.2.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User's Manual.
