Purpose

Issue a warning or an error message when the input exceeds the specified dynamic lower limit

Library

Assertions

Description

pict

This block checks whether the middle input signal lies above the other input signal. When the check fails, a message is added to the diagnostics window and the simulation may be paused or stopped.

Parameters

Limit
Either include or exclude, indicating whether the limit is included in or excluded from the allowed range.
Action
One of the following: ignore: the assertion is ignored; warning: when the assertion fails, a warning is added to the diagnostics window; warning/pause: when the assertion fails, a warning is added to the diagnostics window and the simulation is paused; error: when the assertion fails, an error is added to the diagnostics window and the simulation is stopped.

This parameter can be overwritten on a per model basis (see Simulation Parameters). Note that during analyses and simulation scripts, assertions may be partly disabled (see Assertions).

Message
The message that is displayed in the diagnostics window when the assertion fails.

Probe Signals

Input
The middle input signal.
Assertion value
1 while the input is above the lower limit and 0 otherwise.
Lower limit
The lower limit input signal.
