Advanced hiding I/O and parameters

Advanced options of SL2AMECosim are only available when using MATLAB version R2014b and higher.

Advanced options are available to hide or show block signals and block parameters. Block I/O and parameters can be filtered against a specific Simulink TAG block and/or dimension.

The advanced option line is decomposed as shown below:

Copy

[<optFilterVar>] [<optFilterParam>] [tag_bio=<TagVarName>]

Copy

[tag_param=<TagParamName>] [maxdimension=<dimMax>]
Value Description
show_vars Show all block I/O variables without any restrictions (default value).
hide_vars Hide all block I/O variables without any restrictions.
hide_tagged_vars Show all block I/O variables but block tagged ones. The tag_bio option is required.
show_tagged_vars Hide all block I/O variables but block tagged ones. The tag_bio option is required
Value Description
show_params Show all block parameters without any restrictions (default value).
hide_params Hide all block parameters without any restrictions.
hide_tagged_params Show all block parameters but block tagged ones. The param option is required.
show_tagged_params Hide all block parameters but block tagged ones. The param option is required.

Note

Only one TAG value for signal filtering and one TAG for parameter filtering can be used at the same time.

Command Filtering
sl2amecosim('relayAndMore','here', 'auto') No filtering, everything will be exposed.
sl2amecosim('relayAndMore','here', 'auto' ‘show_vars show_params’) No filtering, everything will be exposed.
sl2amecosim('relayAndMore','here', 'auto' ‘hide_vars’) All block I/O variables will be hidden. All parameters will be exposed.
sl2amecosim('relayAndMore','here', 'auto' ‘hide_vars hide_params’) All block I/O variables will be hidden. All parameters will be hidden.
sl2amecosim('relayAndMore','here', 'auto' ‘hide_tagged_vars show_tagged_params tag_bio=T1 tag_param=T2’) All block I/O variables will be shown except those of blocks tagged T1. All parameters will be hidden except those of blocks tagged T2.
sl2amecosim('relayAndMore','here', 'auto' ‘hide_vars maxdimension=2’) All block I/O variables will be hidden. All parameters with dimension>2 will be hidden.

Note

A tag set on a subsystem block is applied automatically on all included blocks in this subsystem. Therefore filtering a subsystem block is equivalent to filtering its constituents.
