State Transition Tables

Design modal logic in tabular form

Design your combinatorial logic in tabular form by using state transition tables. State transition tables provide an easy on-ramp for learning Stateflow^® and are an ideal solution for simple, process-oriented, sequential state machines. Detect modeling errors by running diagnostic checks, setting breakpoints, and stepping through actions while monitoring data values.
