Random Source
5-363
Maximum
The maximum value in the uniform distribution. This parameter is only 
enabled when 
Uniform is selected from the Source type parameter. 
Tunable.
Mean
The mean of the Gaussian (normal) distribution. This parameter is only 
enabled when 
Gaussian is selected from the Source type parameter. 
Tunable.
Variance
The variance of the Gaussian (normal) distribution. This parameter is only 
enabled when 
Gaussian is selected from the Source type parameter. 
Tunable.
Repeatability
The repeatability of the block output: 
Not repeatable, Repeatable, or 
Specify seed. In the Repeatable and Specify seed settings, the block 
outputs the same signal every time you run the simulation. For details, see 
“Output Repeatability” on page 5-360.
Initial seed
The initial seed(s) to use for the random number generator when you set 
the 
Repeatability parameter to Specify seed. For details, see “Specifying 
the Initial Seed” on page 5-360.
Inherit output port attributes
When selected, allows the block to inherit the sample mode, sample period, 
and complexity of a downstream block. (The 
Sample mode, Sample time, 
Samples per frame, and Output complexity parameters are disabled.) 
The output is a length-M sample-based 1-D vector, where length M is 
inherited from the downstream block. If the 
Minimum, Maximum, Mean, 
or 
Variance parameter specifies N channels, the 1-D vector output 
contains M/N samples from each channel. An error occurs in this case if M 
is not an integer multiple of N.
Sample mode
The sample mode, 
Continuous or Discrete. This parameter is enabled 
when the 
Inherit output port attributes check box is deselected.
