Threshold of actuation (PU)

The block is a relay link with a deadband, at the output it generates a logical 1 or 0 according to the following algorithm:
  • two signals are sent to the input of the block, which are compared with each other;
  • if their difference exceeds the threshold, the block generates a logical 1 at the output;
  • if the difference between the first and second input becomes less than the threshold (taking into account the return zone), then the block generates a logical 0 at the output:


where x1(t), x1(t) are the input signals of the block; y(t) is the output signal; a, ε0 is the value of the return zone and the threshold of actuation.

The block is a submodel. To view the structure of the algorithm, right-click Actions → Enter to the submodel.

Inputs

  • x1 - the first input signal;
  • x2 - the second input signal.

Outputs

  • output - the checkbox (flag) of exceeding the difference threshold.

Properties

  • Threshold of actuation — the setpoint to which the difference in input signals is compared;
  • Return zone — a value that is subtracted from the setpoint to form the lower switching limit.

Parameters

none
