Overview

Description`

The User Limit block gets the status of one of the user limits. The block is updated at the update rate, determined by the Evaluate Block

The following parameters are used to configure this block.

Limit Number	The number of the limit to be checked. This number may be absolute or linked to the Model Number.
Evaluate Block	This block allows you to specify whether the block executes Every Sample, Every Other Sample (Odd or Even), or Every Fourth Sample (and specify the First, Second, Third, or Fourth). This provides greater flexibility in controlling the execution of a model and to preserve performance for other areas of motion control.
User Defined Block Priority	When selected, allows you to enter a Priority Code to modify Execution Ordering of this block. For more information, see Block Execution Order and User Defined Block Priority.
Priority	For an explanation of how the Priority field is used by the MechaWare Model Downloader, see Block Execution Order and User Defined Block Priority.
User Data 0	Application-specific data. See User Data Storage.
User Data 1	Application-specific data. See User Data Storage.

The Limit Number of the User Limit block specifies which limit to read the state from.

The State is 0.0 when the limit has not been triggered and non-zero when it is triggered but not yet cleared.

The block has two user data fields (User Data 0, User Data 1) to store application-specific data for convenient storage and retrieval. For more information, see User Data Storage.

The block's update schedule is determined by the Evaluate Block. The following Parameter Dialog Box is opened by double-clicking on the block in a Simulink model:
