Menu: State Charts
The state ID block outputs the following information about the selected state:
•Whether the state is active
•The numeric ID for the state
This block is useful for determining if the specified state is active. Thus, the state chart can control the model.
The state ID block is not only available for use inside the state chart; you can only insert state ID blocks in the continuous portion of the diagram.
