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. To detect modeling errors, run diagnostic checks, set breakpoints, and step through actions while monitoring data values.

View Sequential Logic Through State Transition Matrix

Use the State Transition Matrix view for a state transition table in Stateflow®. Instead of drawing states and transitions graphically in a Stateflow chart, use state transition tables to express the modal logic in tabular format. State transition tables are supported only as blocks in a Simulink® model. For more information, see State Transition Tables in Stateflow.
