It's possible to assign an external variable as limits of a Saturation block?

Hi, I'm new with Twin Activate, and the're are a lot of blocks that are interesting to use, but, for example in the Saturation block, should be good to have the possibility to assign to the limits (Upper and Lower):

A variable, or an external constant, or the result of an external calculus that you can change otside the block instead of to change te parameter inside the block coping the value that you want.

It's possible to assign in similar form, an external value to the final time of the Simulation?

Thanks!

    Hi Carlos,

    In Twin Activate, you can use variables or expressions for each parameter. The variables might be defined in model or diagram context. But even if they are called 'variables', they will have fixed values during simulation.

    The same applies to simulation parameters and solver settings.

    If you want to change limits during simulation you must use the block ControlledSaturation.
