Two-Way Connection - Create two-way connector port for subsystem

Library

Utilities

Description

The Two-Way Connection block has a two-way connector port, which transports Simulink signals both ways. You connect this port to another two-way connector port. The schematic below illustrates how the two-way connection works. It carries the signal Signal1 from the input port of the first Two-Way Connection block to the output port of the second Two-Way Connection block, and at the same time carries the signal Signal2 from the input port of the second Two-Way Connection block to the output port of the first Two-Way Connection block.

The Two-Way Connection block supports invariant model architecture for top-down or bottom-up design. It lets you build subsystems as Simulink models, based on signals, and then connect them as if they are physical systems. Place the Two-Way Connection blocks inside the subsystem and connect them to the Connection Port blocks. Then the ports on the subsystem boundary appear as two-way connector ports .

Note   Two-way connection blocks cannot be connected across nonvirtual subsystems.

Dialog Box and Parameters

The block has no parameters.

Ports

The block has a Simulink input port, a Simulink output port, and a two-way connector port.
