Getting Started

---

This guide introduces you to Stateflow^® software, an interactive, graphical design tool for developing and simulating event-driven systems based on finite-state machine theory.

To get up and running quickly, you will build and simulate a realistic Stateflow chart as part of a Simulink^® model.

This guide is designed for users who have little or no experience with the Stateflow product, but who do have a basic knowledge of Simulink modeling and simulation software and MATLAB^® technical computing software.

Introduction to the Stateflow Product	Introduces you to the Stateflow product and a basic workflow for building a Stateflow chart.
The Stateflow Chart You Will Build	Describes the Stateflow chart you will build in the context of a Simulink model.
Defining the Interface to the Simulink Model	Guides you through phase 1 of a basic workflow for building a Stateflow chart: defining the interface to the Simulink model
Defining the States for Modeling Each Mode of Operation	Guides you through phase 2 of a basic workflow for building a Stateflow chart: defining the states for modeling each mode of operation
Defining State Actions and Variables	Guides you through phase 3 of a basic workflow for building a Stateflow chart: defining state actions and variables
Defining Transitions Between States	Guides you through phase 4 of a basic workflow for building a Stateflow chart: defining transitions between states
Triggering a Stateflow Chart	Guides you through phase 5 of a basic workflow for building a Stateflow chart: deciding how to trigger the Stateflow chart
Simulating the Chart	Shows how to simulate a Stateflow chart, by using breakpoints and observing data
Debugging the Chart	Shows how to debug errors in a Stateflow chart
