Signal name

Name of signal.

Signal name must resolve to Simulink signal object

Specifies that either the base MATLAB workspace or the model workspace must contain a Simulink.Signal object with the same name as this signal. Simulink software displays an error message if it cannot find such an object when you update or simulate the model containing this signal.

Note   Simulink.Signal objects in the model workspace must have their storage class set to Auto. See Using Model Workspaces for more information.

When Signal name must resolve to Simulink signal object is enabled, a signal resolution icon appears by default to the left of any label on the signal. The icon looks like this:

See Signal Resolution Indicators for more information.

Show propagated signals

Note   This option is available only for signals that originate from blocks that support signal label propagation. For a list of the blocks, see Blocks That Support Signal Label Propagation.

Enabling this parameter causes Simulink to create a propagated signal label.

For example, in the following model, the output signal from the Subsystem block is configured for signal label propagation. The propagated signal label (<const>) is based on the name of the upstream output signal of the Constant block (const).

For more information, see Signal Label Propagation.
