Equations in ExtendSim
This is a basic tutorial of how to build an equation in ExtendSim.
Equation-based blocks in ExtendSim take input variables, use those values in an equation, and outputs the results of a calculation. So they're similar to the formula bar of a spreadsheet.
Equation-based blocks provide access to over 1000 internal functions; you can also use operators to enter logical statements, write compound conditions, and specify loops. The equation can be a simple as performing a mathematical operation on the value from an input connetor or it could be as complex as a full programming segment. The equation is automatically compiled when you click OK in the block's dialog.
This video shows one example of equation use in ExtendSim.
