Relay
Purpose
Toggle between on- and off-state with configurable threshold
Library
Control / Discontinuous
Description
The output of the Relay block depends on its internal state. If the input signal exceeds the upper threshold, the relay will be in the on-state. It will be in the off-state if the inputs is less than the lower threshold. The relay does not change for input values between the thresholds.
Parameters
- Upper threshold
The highest value that the input signal may reach before the state changes to the on-state.
- Lower threshold
The lowest value that the input signal may reach before the state changes to the off-state.
- On-state output
The value of the output signal while the relay is in the on-state.
- Off-state output
The value of the output signal while the relay is in the off-state.
- Initial state
The state of the relay at simulation start. Possible values are
onandoff.- Output data type
The data type of the output signal. See Data Types.
Probe Signals
- Input
The block input signal.
- Output
The block output signal.
