Model Block

Model

Represents a model defined in the selected test. Each model block displays CPU and frequency divider information and which models are dependent on it.

Undefined Model

When a model has no defined input or output variables, it is considered undefined. In this case, signal connections to that model cannot be determined.

Input/Output Blocks

input+output_blocks.png 

Input Block

A blue rectangle that appears to the left of a model block when signals from an input device connect to that model. Represents an input device.

Output Block

A red rectangle that appears to the right of a model block when signals from the model connect to an output device. Represents an output device.

I/O Mappings

Signals are mapped from input devices to models and then to output devices. The mapping is determined by the device I/O mappings associated with each signal and the variables defined within each model.

Signal Tooltips

Hover over a signal name to display its full name and channel information.

RTDB Legend

A color-coded key representing all RTDBs required by the test. Signal connections are assigned the color of their corresponding RTDB to indicate which RTDB each signal belongs to.

Signal Bus

When four or more signal connections exist to or from a single input or output device, the signals are grouped into a bus. Clicking on the bus displays all signals, their associated RTDB, and the channel number assigned to each signal. A search bar allows you to search for specific signals within the bus.

Model Mapping Bus

Displays the signals mapped between a model and its dependent models. Selecting the bus shows the individual signal mappings and their associated RTDB.

Note:   The model mapping bus displays signals mapped to child models regardless of their RTDB assignment. As a result, a signal shown in the bus is not guaranteed to originate from the model it's dependent on
