When debugging models, I sometimes like to use the Port Values Display<\/a>. I am happy to see that it now works also with buses, including the possibility to display a subset of the bus elements.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Array of Buses Parameters<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Up to now, if you wanted to specify an array of buses as parameter to a Simulink block (For example as initial value of a Unit Delay block, or in a Constant Block), you could only specify a structure that would be duplicated for the elements of the array.<\/p>\r\n\r\n In R2015b, you can now specify a full array of structures. Simply create the array, the corresponding bus object, specifying those in your block, and you are good to go:<\/p>\r\n\r\n This feature becomes especially useful if you want to iterate on structure parameters inside a For Each Subsystem. Pass your array of structure as a mask parameter to the For Each Subsystem. Inside, use it as if it was just a structure, and enable the parameter partitioning.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Bus Assignment Block can Assign Sub-Buses<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Up to now, the Bus Assignment block could only reassign individual elements one by one. In this release, it is now possible to reassign entire sub-buses. For large complex buses, this can make your model easier to read and maintain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Bus Support in MATLAB System block<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Finally, bus support has been added to the MATLAB System block. It is pretty simple to use. Create a parameter to specify the bus object, specify it as output data type.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Now it's your turn<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Let us know what you think of those bus enhancements by leaving a comment here.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In R2015b, lots of enhancements related to buses have been implemented.
