Create and Label the OR States

   1.

Double-click on the State button


in the toolbar. The button appears depressed and is now in multiple object mode. Using the sample solution Stateflow diagram as a guide, click in the drawing area to place the states in the drawing area. The Stateflow diagram is exclusive (OR) decomposition by default, so you do not need to change the decomposition. The states correspond to these states in the solution:

• Power_off
• Power_on.Ride.On
• Power_on.Ride.Stopped
• Power_on.Timer.Stopped
• Power_on.Timer.Counting

Press the Escape key or click on the State button to toggle the button out of multiple object mode.

Click on the ? character within each state to enter each state label. The final text after the last period is the individual state's name. There are some states that have the same text as their label. This is ok since the hierarchy of the state is used to create a unique label. For example, both the Ride and Timer superstates have a Stopped substate. Reading the Stateflow diagram, you can see that these states are uniquely described by the text Power_on.Ride.Stopped and Power_on.Timer.Stopped.

Use the sample solution to label the states based on their placement in the drawing area. Deselect the state (press the Escape key) to exit the edit.
