Modify Solver Profiler Rules

You can customize the suggestions that appear in the Solver Profiler in these ways:

Change the thresholds of the Solver Profiler rules that detect failure patterns.
Select which rules to apply during a profiling run.
Author your own rule set as a MATLAB^® script.

Change Thresholds of Profiler Rules

Click Rule Customization in the Solver Profiler to access the rule set. You can change the thresholds for most of these rules and also select which rules you want to apply selectively during a simulation run.

Develop Profiler Rule Set

You can override the settings on the Rule Set dialog box by specifying a custom rule set.

Create a rule set as a MATLAB script and specify the path to the script in the Custom Rule Set section of the Rule Set dialog box.

A simple rule set example looks as follows:

function diagnosticsString = customRule(profilerData)
		if isempty(profilerData.zcEvents)
			diagnosticsString{1} = 'No zero crossing event detected.';
		else
			diagnosticsString{1} = 'Zero-crossing events detected.';
		end
end

The input to the function is an array of structures called profilerData. This array of structures organizes all the information that the Solver Profiler collects during a profiling run. It contains the following substructures.

Substructure	Fields
`stateInfo`: Stores information on block states	`name`: Block name `value`: State values `blockIdx`: Block ID
`blockInfo`: Cross-reference of blocks and state IDs	`name`: Block name `stateIdx`: State ID
`zcSrcInfo`: Stores information on blocks causing zero crossing events	`name`: Block name `blockIdx`: Block ID
`zcEvents`: Cross-reference of the time stamps of zero crossing events and the corresponding state IDs	`t`: Event timestamp `srcIdx`: Block ID
`exceptionEvents`: Cross-reference of exception event timestamps, the ID of the corresponding state that caused the event, and the cause.	`t`: Event timestamp `stateIdx`: State ID `cause`: Cause of exception
`resetTime`: Stores timestamps of solver resets.	None
`tout`: Stores simulation times.	None
