Owning Palette: Control Design VIs and Functions

Requires: Control Design and Simulation Module. This topic might not match its corresponding palette in LabVIEW depending on your operating system, licensed product(s), and target.

Use the Time Response VIs to create generic linear simulations and time domain plots for step inputs, impulse inputs, and initial condition responses.

The VIs on this palette can return general LabVIEW error codes or specific control design error codes.

Palette ObjectDescription
CD Get Time Response DataObtains the time response information from the time response data of a system model. You must manually select the polymorphic instance to use.
CD Impulse ResponseCalculates the output of the system when an impulse excites it. Wire data to the State-Space Model input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
CD Initial ResponseCalculates the natural or zero-input response of the system. This VI returns the output of the system due to the initial states only. Wire data to the State-Space Model input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
CD Linear SimulationCalculates the output when the Inputs excite the given system using discrete simulation. Wire data to the State-Space Model input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
CD Parametric Time ResponseCalculates parametric information, such as rise time, peak time, settling time, steady-state gain, overshoot, and peak value of an input model based on time response data. If you use the Internal instances of this VI, this VI internally calculates the time response data for which it calculates the parametric information. If you use the External instances of this VI, you must specify the time response data for which this VI calculates the parametric information. Wire data to the State-Space Model or Time Range inputs to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
CD Step ResponseCalculates the output of the system when a step input excites it. This VI assumes the initial states of the system to be zero. Wire data to the State-Space Model input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
