How To Open The Model Properties Dialog Box

Select Model > Properties (or right-click) to view information about the selected model. This opens the Model Properties dialog box where you can see the model type, definition, inputs, availability of PEV and constraints, creation date, user name, and toolbox version on the following tabs: General, Inputs, Model, and Information.

Model Properties: General

Here you can see the model type (such as MBC model or function model), the number of inputs, and the availability of constraints and Prediction Error.

You can use the radio buttons to select the Output Quantity to be the

• Model Value

• Prediction error variance of model

• Boundary constraint of model

The Output Quantity is the model value used everywhere in CAGE (surface plots, optimization objectives or constraints, tradeoff, etc.).

Choose one of the last two options if you want to use a model's prediction error variance (PEV) or boundary as a switching input to a function model. You can duplicate the original model, choose the PEV output quantity, and feed it in to your switch function.

The option Boundary constraint of model evaluates only the boundary of the model output. Any boundary information from the inputs is ignored (e.g., if inputs are also models with boundary models).

You can enter values in the Output saturation limits edit boxes to set bounds on the model output values.

Model Properties: Inputs

Here you can view all the immediate inputs and variable dependencies of your model. For some models the two lists will be the same; in the example shown one of the inputs is another model (MBT) so the variable dependencies list also shows the variable inputs for that model. This information is shown graphically in the Connections pane.

Model Properties: Model

Here you can view the model definition, the project file, and the model path. Function model definitions are shown here. For MBC models the model definition (showing the parameters and coefficients of the model formula) is the same information you would see in the Model Browser part of the toolbox when selecting View > Model Definition.

Model Properties: Information

Here you can see the user name associated with the model, the date of creation and the version number of the Model-Based Calibration Toolbox product used to create the model. If you added any comments to the export information in the Model Browser Export Models dialog this information also appears here.
