How to use the keyword "post increment" in .cnt file to change the result write frequency?

I try to change the result output frequency by using .cnt file during ​simulation. but it doesnot work.
I checked the.out file and found it said"​change the post tape frequency:…". It seems that the CNT file does not work. How to use this keyword?
In volc it says 1-5rd as 1st input and 6-10rd as 2st input for 2nd datablock. of "post increment",it should be 1-10rd ​as 1st input and 11-20rd as 2nd input

  • The entries 1-5 and 6-10 indicates you have to enter the values for 1st entry within 1 to 5 characters and similarly the second entry should be entered within 6 to 10 characters. I have attached a screhshot which illustrrates this, I have added numbers 12345..... to show length of each field.
     
    This is for single precision format. But in recent Mentat versions, dat file is written in extended precision. In this format,
    Each field length is doubled.
    There is also a free field format where each field can be separated by comma.
     
    Further the second field is used to control how many times output should be written per loadcase and is should be used when you are not used the first one.
