Block Category: Fixed Point
Inputs: fx1.16 or fx1.32 format.

Auto Scale: Rescales the range when either the maximum or minimum value is exceeded.
Const: Indicates the value of the output signal.
Input Count: Sets the number of inputs for the block.

Min Val Seen: Displays the low watermark of values that come through the block. This is a read-only field.
Max Val Seen: Displays the high watermark of values that come through the block. This is a read-only field.
