Stateflow

Defining Output to Simulink Event Triggers

Overview

Stateflow block output events connect to other Simulink blocks or Stateflow blocks. There are two main options for trigger type:

• Edge-triggered
• Function call

Simulink controls the execution of edge-triggered subsystems. The function call mechanism is a means by which Stateflow executes a subsystem essentially outside of Simulink's direct control. Use a function call trigger to have the Stateflow block control the execution of the connected Simulink block. Function call subsystems are never executed directly by Simulink.
