SETPA – Block for remote array parameter setting

Block SymbolLicensing group: STANDARD

Function Description
The SETPA block is used for setting the array parameters of other blocks in the model remotely . The block operates in two modes, which are switched by the SETF parameter. For $\mathtt{\text{SETF}}=\mathtt{\text{off}}$ the remote parameter cs is set to the value of the input vector signal arrRef at the start and every time when the input signal changes. If the $\mathtt{\text{SETF}}$ parameter is set to on, then the block works in one-shot write mode. In that case the remote parameter is set only when rising edge (off$\to$on) occurs at the SET input.

The name of the remote parameter is determined by the string parameter sc (string connection), which has the form <block_path:parameter_name>. The path to the block whose parameter should be read can contain hierarchic levels separated by dots followed by the block name. The path can be either relative or absolute:

• Relative – starts at the level where the GETPA block is located. The string has to be prefixed with ’.’ in this case. Examples of relative paths: ".CNDR:yp", ".Lights.ATMT:touts".
• Absolute – complete sequence of hierarchic levels down to the block. For referring to blocks located in the driver task (see the IOTASK block for details on configuration) the ’&’ followed by the driver’s name is used at the beginning of the absolute path. Examples of absolute paths: "task1.inputs.ATMT:touts", "&EfaDrv.measurements.CNDR:yp".

The order and names of individual hierarchic levels are displayed in a tree structure in the REXYGEN Diagnostics program.
