■TFSISO statement.
 
For the option:
Do the following:
Name
Enter the name that you want assigned to the transfer function.
Input Array Name (U)
Enter the array that defines the input (or control) for the transfer function. The array must be an inputs (U) array. If you specified the size of the array when you created it, it must be one.
State Array Name (X)
Enter the array that defines the state variable array for the transfer function. The array must be a states (X) array, and it cannot be used in any other linear state equation, general state equation, or transfer function. If you specified the size of the array when you created it, it must be one less than the number of coefficients in the denominator.
Output Array (Y)
Enter the array that defines the output for the transfer function. The array must be an outputs (Y) array, and it cannot be used in any other linear state equation, general state equation, or transfer function. If you specify the size of the array when you created it, its size must be one.
IC Array Name (IC)
Enter the array that defines the initial conditions array for the transfer function. The array must be an IC array, and it cannot be used in any other linear state equation, general state equation, or transfer function. If you specified the size of the array when you created it, it must be equal to the size of the state array.
Numerator Coefficients and Denominator Coefficients
Specify the coefficients of the polynomial in the numerator and denominator of the transfer function. List the coefficients in order of ascending power of s, starting with s to the zero power, including any intermediate zero coefficients. The number of coefficients for the denominator must be greater than or equal to the number of coefficients for the numerator.
