Manage enumerated parameters

Enumerations provide named options that Simulation Builders who are using your Model Type can select. You can create a new parameter in the Model Editor and create an enumeration Parameter Type.

2. Expand the Parameters section.

3. Select the icon.

4. Enter the Name of the parameter.

5. In the Type list, select Enumeration.

6. Define if the parameter should be invariant. See Define invariant variables.

7. Define if the parameter should be global. See Define global parameters and variables.

8. Enter an enumerated value in the Values column and press Enter after each one.

9. To set the default enumeration value, select a value from the Default list.

   The list is populated from the values you entered in step 6.

10. Enter a Description of the enumeration.

    The enumeration will be created and saved to the Model Type.
