| Using Simulink | |
A configuration set is a named set of values for a model's parameters, such as solver type and simulation start or stop time. Every new model is created with a default configuration set, called Configuration, that initially specifies default values for the model's parameters. You can subsequently create and modify additional configuration sets and associate them with the model. The sets associated with a model can each specify different values for any given model parameter.
Configuration Set Components
A configuration set comprises groups of related parameters called components. Every configuration set includes the following components:
Some Simulink-based products, such as the Real-Time Workshop, define additional components. If such a product is installed on your system, the configuration set also contains the components that it defines.
The Active Set
Only one of the configuration sets associated with a model is active at any given time. The active set determines the current values of the model's model parameters. Changing the value of a parameter in the Model Explorer changes its value in the active set. Simulink allows you to change the active set at any time (except when executing the model). In this way, you can quickly reconfigure a model for different purposes, e.g., testing and production, or apply standard configuration settings to new models.
Displaying Configuration Sets
To display the configuration sets associated with a model, open the Model Explorer (see The Model Explorer). The configuration sets associated with the model appear as gear-shaped nodes in the Model Explorer's Model Hierarchy pane.
The Model Explorer's Contents pane displays the components of the selected configuration set. The Model Explorer's Dialog pane display a dialog for setting the parameters of the selected group (see The Configuration Parameters Dialog Box).
