Stateflow

Setting Properties for the Stateflow Machine

The Stateflow machine is Stateflow's interface to the Simulink model containing Stateflow Chart blocks (that is, charts). To set properties for the Stateflow machine, do the following:

1. Right-click the top-level machine .
2. From the resulting menu, select properties.

1. The Machine properties dialog box appears.

   

3. Enter information in the fields provided.
4. Click one of the following buttons:
• Apply saves the changes.
• Cancel closes the dialog without making any changes.
• OK saves the changes and closes the dialog box.
• Help displays the Stateflow online help in an HTML browser window.

The following table lists and describes the fields of the Machine properties dialog.

Field	Description
Simulink Model	Name of the Simulink model that defines this Stateflow machine, which is read-only. You change the model name in Simulink when you save the model under a chosen file name.
Creation Date	Date on which this machine was created.
Creator	Name of the person who created this Stateflow machine.
Modified	Time of the most recent modification of this Stateflow machine.
Version	Version number of this Stateflow machine.
Enable C-like bit operations	If you select this box, all new charts recognize C bitwise operators (~, &, |, ^, >>, and so on) in action language statements and encode these operators as C bitwise operations. You can enable or disable this option for individual charts in the chart's property dialog box. See Specifying Chart Properties for a detailed explanation of this property.
Description	Brief description of this Stateflow machine, which is stored with the model that defines it.
Document Link	MATLAB expression that, when evaluated, displays documentation for this Stateflow machine.
