Implementing Simulink Update Interfaces

Stateflow diagrams execute when they are updated by the Simulink model during simulation. A Stateflow diagram can be updated when it is triggered or sampled by the Simulink model. This section summarizes all the settings necessary for implementing any of the following possible Simulink updates for a Stateflow chart block:

• Defining a Triggered Stateflow Block -- Provides an example of a triggered Stateflow block in a Simulink model.
• Defining a Sampled Stateflow Block -- Provides an example of a sampled Stateflow block in a Simulink model.
• Defining an Inherited Stateflow Block -- Provides an example of a Stateflow block that inherits its sample time in a Simulink model.
• Defining a Continuous Stateflow Block -- Provides an example of a continuously sampled Stateflow block in a Simulink model.
• Defining Function Call Output Events -- Provides an example of a Stateflow block that triggers a subsystem in a Simulink model with a function call.
• Defining Edge-Triggered Output Events -- Provides an example of a Stateflow block that triggers a subsystem in a Simulink model with a signal edge.
