Subsystem

Subsystems

The Subsystem block creates a hierarchical encapsulation of blocks, allowing you to group complex control logic into reusable, self-contained units. This is essential for managing large, complex diagrams.

Mathematical Model

y(t) = f_{\text{subsystem}}(u_1(t), \dots, u_n(t))

Parameters

Parameters	Label	Type	Default	Description
`subsystemName`	Subsystem Name	text	`MySubsystem`
`description`	Description	text	`Hierarchical block container`

Usage Examples

Zie de ingebouwde voorbeelden in de handleiding voor een demonstratie van dit blok.

Remarks & Best Practices

Modularity: Subsystems help manage large diagrams by grouping related logic into reusable units
Ports: Use InPort and OutPort blocks inside the subsystem to define its external interface
Navigation: Double-click a subsystem to open its internal canvas; use the breadcrumb trail to navigate back
Nested subsystems: Subsystems can contain other subsystems, allowing deep hierarchical organisation
Performance: Subsystem scope resolution adds negligible overhead; hierarchical structure has no meaningful performance cost
