Objectives

The new learning objectives of this exercise are to compare and update state machine structures in SysML and Stateflow.

...

This exercise assumes the student has

  • Anchor_Hlk44840893_Hlk44840893

    IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.2 installed correctly on his or her machine with a valid license for use, and

  • Syndeia 3.3 installed as a plugin for Rhapsody with a valid license for use

  • Syndeia Stateflow interface, correctly installed with a valid license for user.

  • MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow installed, licensed and available to the user,

  • A local operating system network connection in the Syndeia Repository Manager

The user can use any local operating system network connection they have available. It is generally advisable to carry out these exercises in a non-production repository, a "sandbox", set up for training and practice purposes.

  • Completed Exercise 12.1 and either still has the SysML model open or has saved and reopened it.

  2. Back in the Syndeia Connection Browser (Figure 2), find the statechart_0 connection, right-click and select Sync Source -> Target (make sure Simulink model is saved and closed before updating). Re-open the Simulink statechart_0.slx model and double-click the state chart symbol to see the updated states and transitions (Figure 4).

  1. Modify the ThreeStates model in StateFlow as shown in Figure 5 by moving the outgoing transition of the Standby state from the On state to the FailState state. Save the StateFlow model.

  2. In the Connection Browser, find the statechart_0 connection, right-click and select Compare Source & Target. The result should be similar to Figure 6. Note the difference in the Standby outgoing transition. Syndeia 3.3 cannot update Rhapsody state machines from Stateflow.
