Specify nominal values

Option to view, add, and edit value-unit pairs of model nominal values

Model Configuration Pane: Simscape

Description

The scaling of each variable is determined by its nominal value and physical units. Nominal values can come from different sources. In absence of a nominal value specified for the block, a variable uses the nominal value for the commensurate physical unit specified in the model table. All models have a default table of nominal values and units (factory default). To view, add, and edit the value-unit pairs for the model, click the Specify nominal values button next to the Normalize using nominal values check box.
