Determining the Compiled Sample Time of a Block

During the compilation phase of a simulation, Simulink determines the sample time of a block from its SampleTime parameter (if it has an explicit sample time), its block type (if it has an implicit sample time), or by its context within the model. This compiled sample time determines the sample rate of a block during simulation. You can determine the compiled sample time of any block in a model by first updating the model and then getting the block CompiledSampleTime parameter, using the get_param command.
