When left clicking on a basic circuit a parameter box appears on the left side of the canvas in which the parameters of the respective basic circuit can be modified. For basic circuits containing multiple hydraulic components, the parameters are arranged according to the respective components. If not all parameters are shown (in case of a large number of parameters) you can scroll down in the parameter box using the mouse wheel.

Locking parameters
The Hysopt software software calculates the optimal system parameters. However, as a designer you are always able to change parameters as you like. By clicking on the lock icon a parameter can be forced to a user defined value (the lock icon is marked in red). This way the software sees this parameter as a hard input value instead of an (optimized) calculation result. This feature is particularly useful in renovation projects where the existing parts of the system must be modeled 'as is' by locking the parameter values.
Note that parameters without lock icon are always input parameters specified by the user. E.g. the minimal valve authority is not a calculation output but a user defined requirement.
