SFP In

Purpose

Receives signals from another RT Box

Description

../../_images/sfpin.svg

For distributed models, the SFP In block receives signals from an SFP Out on a remote RT Box. In each simulation step the block provides the last values received by SFP in the previous simulation step. The parameter Initial value specifies which signal values to output when no valid values have been received by SFP yet.

See Distributed Realtime Simulation for a detailed discussion of SFP communication.

Parameters

SFP port

The name of the SFP port which is connected to the remote RT Box.

Width

The width of the incoming signal. This parameter must match the width of the signal that is connected to the corresponding SFP Out block on the remote RT Box.

Initial value

The output value of the block before a valid signal has been received from the remote RT Box.
