Dials & Gauges Blockset

Placing ActiveX Controls in a Subsystem

This sample model builds on the one described in Placing ActiveX Controls in a Different Model, but places the Dials & Gauges Blockset blocks in a subsystem of the main model rather than a different model. This approach simplifies operations such as saving and closing the system because the system involves only a single .mdl file.

To open a completed version of this example, type dng_bounce_subsys in the MATLAB Command Window. Notice that the model includes a subsystem called gui in the lower right.

These sections describe the steps for using gauges contained in a subsystem:

• Creating a Subsystem Containing Gauges
• Associating Top-Level Blocks with the Subsystem
