blockMultiSwitch
Set Integer expression that is associated with the first active input signal
Information
This block has a vector of Boolean input signals u[nu] and a vector of (time varying) Integer expressions expr[nu]. The output signal y is set to expr[i], if i is the first element in the input vector u that is true. If all input signals are false, y is set to parameter "y_default" or the last value is kept, if use_pre_as_default = true.
// Conceptual equation (not valid Modelica)
i = 'first element of u[:] that is true';
y = if i==0 then (if use_pre_as_default then pre(y)
else y_default)
else expr[i];
The input connector is a vector of Boolean input signals. When a connection line is drawn, the dimension of the input vector is enlarged by one and the connection is automatically connected to this new free index (thanks to the connectorSizing annotation).
The usage is demonstrated, e.g., in example Modelica.Blocks.Examples.IntegerNetwork1.
Parameters
| Type | Name | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Integer | y_default | 0 | Default value of output y if use_pre_as_default=false, as well as pre(y) at initial time |
| Boolean | use_pre_as_default | true | = true, y holds its last value if all u[i]=false, otherwise y=y_default |
| Integer | nu | 0 | Number of input connections |
