Outputs in Connect View Elements
2D View Element
SIMPLORER 6.0 — Manual 371
The starting point for wiring Connect View Elements is the element’s simulation channel, to
which a simulation quantity from the model is assigned. The outputs of the simulation channels
are connected with views, tables, or operators. The outputs of operators are connected in
turn with a display of a connect element. The X axis usually represents the simulation time,
but it may represent any other element. Only simulation quantities connected with the Connect
View Element are available for output.
Simulator channels
Control field Display
Connect Elements have both the graphic display and a control field, which receives connections
from the simulator channels. The Connect element form is especially meaningful for output
values that are displayed after mathematical operations.
The wiring assigned with Display Elements does not influence the actual simulation model.
The simulator channels are used only to determine the graphical presentation.
If the control field is deleted, the display is also deleted.
Connect View Elements have an «Output/Display» and «Parameters» dialog. The settings
in these dialogs have no influence on the function itself.
The Display Elements 2D View and 2D View (con) show the graphical curves of the assigned
simulation quantities.
Channels Tab
The assignment of simulation quantities for the X and Y axes is defined in the «Channels»
tab. All defined simulation quantities, the system time t, and the frequency f for both X and Y
axes are available.
You can define color, marker, representation type, and line of the curve. If more than the default
Y axis is available, you can select a certain Y axis for the simulation quantity from the
list in the Axis column. Additional Y axis are defined in the Y Axis dialog. Also, a scale and
shift factor in Y-direction can be entered to present curves of different dimensions in the same
coordinate system. See also “Outputs in Quick View Elements” on page 370 and “Outputs in
Connect View Elements” on page 371.
