A model run can be set up by linking to a csv file, with one household per column. This allows single runs of multiple house and household types to be run. For this option, the Probability Model Bases, Time Resolution, Number of Days and both Startdays are also required. All other inputs are ignored. If they are not specified in the data file they are determined from UK probability data.

The model allows several input file options:

1. 4 data rows (Bedrooms(1-4), Tenure(1=Private, 2=Social Rent, 3=Private Rent), House(1)/Flat(2), SIMD Decile (1-10))

2. 7 data rows (Bedrooms, Tenure, House/Flat, SIMD Decile (1-10), Mains Gas(1=Yes,2=No), Meter Type(1=Single Tariff, 2= Dual Tariff), Floor Area (in square meters))

(note: if any of Mains Gas, Meter Type or Floor Area are set to zero, UK probability or default values will be used)

3. 8 data rows (Bedrooms, Tenure, House/Flat, SIMD Decile, Mains Gas, Meter Type, Floor Area, Household Type (1-16))

4. 14 data rows (Bedrooms, Tenure, House/Flat, SIMD Decile, Mains Gas, Meter Type, Floor Area, Household Type, Adult 1/Couple Age Band, Adult 2 Age Band, Adult Child Age Band, Child 1 Age Band, Child 2 Age Band, Child 3 Age Band)

(note: For household type 13 (6-person household) only the couple age age band can be specified, child ages are determined probabilistically))

5. 19 data rows (Bedrooms, Tenure, House/Flat, SIMD Decile, Mains Gas, Meter Type, Floor Area, Household Type, Adult 1/Couple Age Band, Adult 2 Age Band, Adult Child Age Band, Child 1 Age Band, Child 2 Age Band, Child 3 Age Band, Adult 1 Employment, Adult 2 Employment, Adult 1 Workweek, Adult 2 Workweek, Adult 3 Workweek)
