Buildings.Utilities.Reports.Printer Buildings.Utilities.Reports.Printer

Model that prints values to a file

Buildings.Utilities.Reports.Printer

Information

This model prints to a file or the terminal at a fixed sample interval.

The parameter configuration controls the printing as follows:

configurationconfiguration
1 print at sample times only
2 print at sample times and at end of simulation
3 print at end of simulation only

Extends from Modelica.Blocks.Interfaces.DiscreteBlock (Base class of discrete control blocks).

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
TimesamplePeriod Sample period of component [s]

Stringheader""Header to be printed
StringfileName""File name (empty string is the terminal)
Integernin1Number of inputs
Integerconfiguration1Index for treating final report (see documentation)
IntegerminimumLength1Minimum length of result string
IntegersignificantDigits16Number of significant digits
