Signal resolution
Description
Select how a model resolves signals and states to Simulink.Signal
objects. See Explicit and Implicit Symbol Resolution for
more information.
Category: Diagnostics
Settings
Default: Explicit
only
None
Do not perform signal resolution. None of the signals, states, Stateflow® data, and MATLAB Function block data in the model can resolve to
Simulink.Signal
objects.This setting does not affect data stores that you define by creating
Simulink.Signal
objects (instead of using Data Store Memory blocks).Explicit only
Do not perform implicit signal resolution. Only explicitly specified signal resolution occurs. This is the recommended setting.
Explicit and implicit
Perform implicit signal resolution wherever possible, without posting any warnings about the implicit resolutions.
Explicit and warn implicit
Perform implicit signal resolution wherever possible, posting a warning of each implicit resolution that occurs.
Tips
To reduce the dependency of the model on variables and objects in workspaces and data dictionaries, which can improve model portability, readability, and ease of maintenance, use
None
.When you use this setting, migrate design attributes from existing
Simulink.Signal
objects into the model by using block parameters and signal properties (for example, in the Model Data Editor or in Signal Properties dialog boxes).Use the Signal Properties dialog box to specify explicit resolution for signals. For more information, see Signal Properties.
Use the State Attributes pane on dialog boxes of blocks that have discrete states, e.g., the Discrete-Time Integrator block, to specify explicit resolution for discrete states.
Multiple signals can resolve to the same signal object and have the properties that the object specifies. However, the signal object cannot use a storage class other than
Auto
orReusable
.MathWorks® discourages using implicit signal resolution except for fast prototyping, because implicit resolution slows performance, complicates model validation, and can have nondeterministic effects.
Simulink® software provides the
disableimplicitsignalresolution
function, which you can use to change settings throughout a model so that it does not use implicit signal resolution.
