Overview of the SimEvents Debugger

SimEvents software includes a debugger that lets you use MATLAB functions to suspend a simulation at each step or breakpoint, and query simulation behavior. The debugger also creates a simulation log with detailed information about what happens during the simulation.

This table indicates sources of relevant information about the debugger. For information about debugging resources other than the debugger, see Overview of Debugging Resources.
