Controlling and Monitoring Model Execution
Use model execution channels to interact with models.
Depending on your goal, map a model execution channel to model controls on the
Workspace to control or monitor the state of the model
after deployment.
Note You can find execution
channels for a model in the configuration tree by clicking , selecting a model, and clicking
Execution.
| Goal | Model execution channel |
|---|---|
| Run, pause, or stop the simulation | Model Command |
| Save the model state to file or restore the model state to file | |
| View the model execution status | Model Status |
| View the time in the model | Model Time |
| View how long the current time step of the model has been running | Time Step Duration |
