Running a Simulation (Using Simulink)

Using Simulink

Using Menu Commands

Running a simulation using menu commands is easy and interactive. These commands let you select an ordinary differential equation (ODE) solver and define simulation parameters without having to remember command syntax. An important advantage is that you can perform certain operations interactively while a simulation is running:

You can modify many simulation parameters, including the stop time, the solver, and the maximum step size.
You can change the solver.
You can simulate another system at the same time.
You can click on a line to see the signal carried on that line on a floating (unconnected) Scope or Display block.
You can modify the parameters of a block, as long as you do not cause a change in:

You cannot make changes to the structure of the model, such as adding or deleting lines or blocks, during a simulation. If you need to make these kinds of changes, you need to stop the simulation, make the change, then start the simulation again to see the results of the change.
