Scoping Global Parameters

Update the scope of all global parameters in a model to the target-level or model-level.

Before you begin, identify your parameter’s type and scope.
In VeriStand, parameters have two scopes.
  • Target-level scope—VeriStand applies updates to all global parameter values with the same name in other models that run on the same target.
  • Model-level scope—VeriStand restricts the scope of updates to just the parameter in the owning model.

All global parameters in a particular model share the same scope.

  1. Launch your project in the VeriStand Editor.
  2. In the Project Files pane, left-click a system definition file (.nivssdf) and select Configure in System Explorer.
  3. Click Targets » Controller » Simulation Models » Models in the configuration tree.
  4. Click a model.
  5. Click Parameters.
  6. On the Parameters Configuration page, use the Scope for Global Parameters drop-down to select Target or Model.
  7. Save the system definition file.
