Load your own design matrix.
        
            The 
User Defined Design is read by 
HyperStudy and
                used like any other design. You must specify the number of runs (rows) and the
                number of columns in the specified matrix in the first row of the supplied file.
                Spaces, tabs, or commas can delimit the individual elements of the matrix. Each
                entry in a row is an integer to represent the assigned level for the corresponding
                variable: 1 is the first level, 2 is the second, 3 is the third, and so on.

Usability Characteristics
            
            
                
                    - Create your own design based on individual requirements.
- The User Defined matrix uses integers to represent the
                        corresponding level of the variable. This is in contrast to the run matrix
                            DOE, which contains exact values of the
                        variables.
- The number of levels specified in the file must be consistent with the
                        number of variable levels specified in the HyperStudy user
                        interface.
- Imported values are mapped to the independent variables.
- Any data in the inclusion matrix is combined with the run data for
                        post-processing. Any run matrix point which is already part of the inclusion
                        data will not be rerun.
