Description

The Counter Limited block counts up until the specified upper limit is reached. Then the counter wraps back to zero, and restarts counting up. The counter always initializes to zero.

You can specify the upper limit with theUpper limitparameter.

You can specify the sample time with theSample timeparameter. ASample timeof-1means that the sample time is inherited.

The output is an unsigned integer of 8, 16, or 32 bits, with the smallest number of bits needed to represent the upper limit.

This block does not report wrap on overflow warnings during simulation. To report these warnings, see theSimulink.restoreDiagnosticreference page. The block does report errors due to wrap on overflow.

Data Type Support

The Counter Limited block outputs an unsigned integer.
