The State Generation group of modules determines the current mode of the unit.
The module sections include general
information, such as description, attributes, and use in applications. Some
modules include an additional reliability section with specific information for
that module. Unless otherwise stated, for all other modules, the reliability
attribute is generally described as follows.
If the source point of a connection is
unreliable, the destination point uses the last reliable value or, if none
exists, it uses the Default Value. This process dynamically breaks the
connection if the source is not reliable and then remakes the connection when
the source becomes reliable. The reliability of all modules reflects the
reliability of its outputs. If any output is not reliable, then the module is
not reliable. All outputs of the module are associated with the reliability of
the module itself and retain their previous values when the outputs are not
reliable.
See the Upgrading System Files section for a list and description of the module and System Selection changes that were made since the last release of the tool.
