Vector/matrix block input conversion

Description

Select the diagnostic action to take when Simulink® software detects a vector-to-matrix or matrix-to-vector conversion at a block input.

Category: Diagnostics

Settings

Default: none

none

Simulink software takes no action.

warning

Simulink software displays a warning.

error

Simulink software terminates the simulation and displays an error message.

Tips

Simulink software converts vectors to row or column matrices and row or column matrices to vectors under the following circumstances:

  • If a vector signal is connected to an input that requires a matrix, Simulink software converts the vector to a one-row or one-column matrix.

  • If a one-column or one-row matrix is connected to an input that requires a vector, Simulink software converts the matrix to a vector.

  • If the inputs to a block consist of a mixture of vectors and matrices and the matrix inputs all have one column or one row, Simulink software converts the vectors to matrices having one column or one row, respectively.
