Delay and Latency
3-95
The first column of yout is the Simulink time provided by the Digital Clock 
block. The four values to the right of each time are the values in the output 
frame at that time. You can see that the first sample in each of the first four 
output frames inherits the value of the block’s 
Initial conditions parameter. 
As a result of the tasking latency, the first input value appears only as the first 
sample of the 5th output frame (at t=1), which is sample 17.
Example: Zero Tasking Latency. Now try the previous example in Simulink’s 
single-tasking mode. The model and all of the block parameter settings are the 
same.
To engage Simulink’s single-tasking mode, adjust the following settings in the 
Solver panel of the Simulation Parameters dialog box:
•
Type = Fixed-step
•Mode = SingleTasking
