SI Estimate Partially Known Continuous Transfer Function Model VI

SI Estimate Partially Known Continuous Transfer Function Model (1st Order SISO Waveform)

	system model in contains information for the mathematical model of a partially known system. The information includes the model type, model orders, constraints on each of the model coefficients, input and output names of the system, and so on.
	stimulus signal specifies the input waveform of the stimulus signal.
	response signal specifies the input waveform of the response signal.
	error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE. code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
	static gain returns the static gain of the model.
	system model out returns information about the model structure, nominal or estimated parameters, identification result, and so on. Use the Model Management VIs to retrieve the information system model out contains.

SI Estimate Partially Known Continuous Transfer Function Model Details
