Block

The OpDelay block allows the user to simulate computation time.

Opdelay block

Mask

Figure 2: OpDelay mask.

Description

This block allows user to simulate computation time by adding a delay in the model. It's very useful to determine how many calculation time can be added to the model without overruns.

Parameters

Synchronize	Forces the block to be executed at the beginning of each calculation step in the model.

Inputs

Delay

The delay in micro-second to be simulated by the icon.

Inputs

Data input to copy to the outputs of the block (direct feedthrough). It is used to locate the OpDelay block in a specific execution order in the model.. In the first example below, the OpDelay block can be executed in any order because it has no dependencies with other block. In the second example, the OpDelay block should be executed before the gain calculation because the block has its output connected to the gain block.

Outputs

See description of inputs.

Characteristics and Limitations

Direct Feedthrough	No
Discrete sample time	Yes
XHP support	Yes
Work offline	No
