How to Use Sample Times in Simulink

Many engineering applications require control over when the block updates and produces output. Simulink® provides a way to do this by allowing you to set the sample time or rate for discrete and hybrid systems. You can further understand and visualize sample times in the model by using annotations, colors, and the Timing Legend. Colors and annotations relate to different sample time groups existing in the model. The Timing Legend gives you an interactive way to identify rate, rate types, and rate sources, and navigate to them in the model.
