variables and their meanings in PSPICE

Voltage Output
For DC Sweep and Transient Analysis, the output voltages can be obtained by the following statements:

VARIABLES MEANING
V(5) Voltage at Node 5 with respect to Ground
V(4,2) Voltage of Node 4 with respect to Node2
V(R1) Voltage of Resistor R1,where the first Node(as defined in the circuit file) is positive with respect to the second Node.
V(L1) Voltage of Inductor L1,where the first Node(as defined in the circuit file) is positive with respect to the second Node.
V(C1) Voltage of Capacitor C1,where the first Node(as defined in the circuit file) is positive with respect to the second Node.
V(D1) Voltage across Diode D1,where the first Node is positive with respect to the cathode.

Current Output
For DC Sweep and Transient Analysis, the output currents can be obtained by the following statements:

VARIABLES MEANING
I(VS) Current Flowing into DC Source Vs.
I(R5) Current Flowing into Resistor R5,where the Current is assumed to flow from the first Node(as defined in the Circuit file )through R5 to the second Node.
I(D1) Current into diode D1.
IA(T1) Current at Port A of Flowing in to DC Source Vs.
