SIMPLORER User Manual V6.0 - FER-a

Differences in Assignment Actions in State Graphs
SIMPLORER 6.0 — Manual 243
The action types CALC, STEP, and CATI differ in the sequence and computation frequency
used by the simulator (that means, at each simulation step, at each valid step, outside the
state graph). See also 13.6 “Simulator Backplane” on page 418.
Displaying Variable Values and Text Strings by Action Types
The action types DIS and TXT show the value of a variable (and moment) and a user-defined
text string. The simulator writes these messages into the «Simulator» Information Window.
To see the outputs, you must display this window. A user-defined text string must not contain
a vowel mutation (umlaut). Please note: The text must be surrounded by quotation marks.
Defining and Resetting Delays
Outputs in the Info Window Definition of outputs
The action type DEL set a delay in seconds [s]. Throughout the stated delay time, the variable
is set to FALSE, and when the delay time is over, set to TRUE. The variable in the DEL statement
can be used in a transfer condition to set a delay within a state graph. The delay time
can be reset, deleted or changed in other states of the simulation model.
