-You should find the output files at their respective positions as listed in the terminal output. Most of PALM's output files are written in NetCDF format. Please see here (add link) for a complete list of different output data/files that PALM offers. Section ..... describes how to steer PALM's output (e.g. output quantities, output intervals, etc.).
+You should find the output files at their respective positions as listed in the terminal output. Most of PALM's output files are written in NetCDF format and are copied to subdirectory {{{OUTPUT}}}.

 You are now at the point where you can define and run your own simulation set-up for the first time.
+
+== How to create a new simulation set-up
+
+First give your new set-up a name to be used as the run identifier, e.g. {{{neutral}}}. Create a new parameter file and set all parameters required for defining your set-up (number of grid points, grid spacing, etc.) . You may find it more convenient to use an existing parameter file and modify it, e.g. the one which has come with the automatic installation:
+{{{
+   cd ~/palm/current_version
+   mkdir -p JOBS/neutral/INPUT
+   cp JOBS/example_cbl/INPUT/example_cbl_p3d JOBS/neutral/INPUT/neutral_p3d
+}}}
+Edit file {{{neutral_p3d}}} and add, delete, or change parameters. Run your new set-up with
+{{{
+   palmrun -d neutral -h default -X4 -a "d3#"
+}}}
