Signal Attributes

R2026b

Blocks for converting data types, units, and other signal properties, such as Data Type Conversion, Rate Transition, and Signal Specification

Use blocks from the Signal Attributes library to modify the properties of signals as they pass through your model. You can convert data types, change engineering units, set initial values, specify signal dimensions, or control sample times.

To add blocks from this library to your model, see Add Blocks to Models.

Blocks

	Bus to Vector	Convert virtual bus to vector
	Data Type Conversion	Convert input signal to specified data type
	Data Type Conversion Inherited	Convert from one data type to another using inherited data type and scaling

	Data Type Propagation	Set data type and scaling of propagated signal based on information from reference signals
	Data Type Scaling Strip	Remove scaling and map to built in integer
	IC	Set initial value of signal
	Probe	Output signal attributes, including width, dimensionality, sample time, and complex signal flag
	Rate Transition	Handle transfer of data between blocks operating at different rates
	Signal Conversion	Convert signal to new type without altering signal values
