20.4. I/O definition

Because the CoLink modeling platform is different from the RecurDyn modeling platform, Data flow must be defined with the function of:

20.4.1. Plant Inputs and Plant Outputs in RecurDyn model

Plant inputs are data from CoLink model to RecurDyn model and plant outputs are data from RecurDyn model to CoLink model.

Plant inputs are:

• Defined in the dialog box of General Plant Input List.

• Used in Function Expression.

  

  Figure 20.24 The dialog box of General Plant Input List dialog box

Plant outputs are:

• Defined in the dialog box of General Plant Output List

• With Function Expression

20.4.2. RecurDyn block in CoLink model

If plant inputs and plant outputs are plural, the user uses the mux and demux block to use plant inputs and plant outputs..
