Introduction to the Debugger
With the debugger you run your simulation method by method.
You can stop after each method to examine the execution results. In
this way you can pinpoint problems in your model to specific blocks,
parameters, or interconnections.
Note
Methods are functions that the Simulink software uses to
solve a model at each time step during the simulation. Blocks are
made up of multiple methods. "Block execution" in this
documentation is shorthand for "block methods execution."
Block diagram execution is a multi-step operation that requires execution
of the different block methods in all the blocks in a diagram at various
points during the process of solving a model at each time step during
simulation, as specified by the simulation loop. |
The debugger has both a graphical and a command-line user interface.
The graphical interface allows you to access the most commonly used
features of the debugger. The command-line interface gives you access
to all of the capabilities in the debugger. If you can use either
to perform a task, the documentation shows you first how to use the
graphical interface, then the command-line interface.
