SB2SL

Compatibility Between SystemBuild and Simulink

SB2SL performs a block-by-block translation of the SystemBuild model. For SystemBuild blocks for which a clear equivalent exists in Simulink, SB2SL places the equivalent built-in Simulink block into the resulting Simulink model. The Gain block is an example in which there is a clear equivalent between SystemBuild and Simulink blocks.

There are other SystemBuild blocks for which there are no clear Simulink equivalents. However, through the use of Simulink's masking and library features, equivalent implementations of these blocks have been created and are found in a special Simulink library called libsb2sl.mdl.

An example of this type of block is the Ramp block found in the SystemBuild SNG library. This block supports limits on the output and a relative start time for the ramp. The standard Simulink Ramp block does not inherently support these features. SB2SL translates this block into a masked subsystem that includes a collection of existing Simulink blocks. This masked subsystem behaves the same as the SystemBuild Ramp block.
