Time, in seconds, of the simulation that the profiler starts analyzing the model. This is not the same as the start time of the simulation.

Time, in seconds, of the simulation to which the profiler should profile the model. By default, the analysis continues until the end of the simulation. Changing this parameter does not change the stop time of the model which you specify in the Model Configuration Parameters.

A value less than the configured stop time of the model stops the profiling and simulation at StopTime.

Maximum number of events that are logged. If the number of logged events reaches this value and memory is available, increase BufferSize. If memory is limited, consider lowering the value.

By default, the profiler does not save the states of the model. Enabling this parameter configures the profiler to save the states to the profiler data MAT file.

If you select this parameter, it will enable the States explorer.

Enable this parameter to save Simscape states to the profiler data MAT file.

If you select this parameter, it will enable the Simscape explorer.

Enable this parameter to save zero crossing information to the profiler data MAT file

If you select this parameter, it will enable the Zero-Crossing explorer.

Option to log the solver Jacobian matrices to memory. This option is useful for simulations that use implicit solvers. For a comparison of solvers, see Compare Solvers.

For a more detailed explanation of the solver Jacobian, see Choose a Jacobian Method for an Implicit Solver.

Log stiffness analysis Simscape states, specified as an array. This parameter provides an array of time points that you want to log the Simscape Stiffness states to the profiler data MAT file. Enable this parameter to show Simscape Stiffness tab in the Suggestion Pane. 

Enable this parameter to log the stiffness analysis of Simscape states to the profiler data MAT file. For more information on Simscape representation of stiffness and other physical system concepts, see How Simscape Models Represent Physical Systems (Simscape)

Click Rule Customization in the Solver Profiler to access the rule set. You can change the thresholds for most of these rules and also select which rules you want to apply selectively during a simulation run.

To modify a rule, enable its customization and then enter a desired threshold value.

Custom Rule Set

You can override the settings on the Rule Set dialog box by specifying a custom rule set.

Create a rule set as a MATLAB^® script and specify the path to the script in the Custom Rule Set section of the Rule Set dialog box.

A simple rule set example looks as follows:

function diagnosticsString = customRule(profilerData)
		if isempty(profilerData.zcEvents)
			diagnosticsString{1} = 'No zero crossing event detected.';
		else
			diagnosticsString{1} = 'Zero-crossing events detected.';
		end
end
