Rule

Sub ID a

Signal lines shall not split into more than two sub lines at a single branching point.

Custom Parameter

Not Applicable

Example — Correct

Example — Incorrect

Sub ID b

Signal lines shall be resized vertically or horizontally as required for the model layout.

Custom Parameter

Rationale

Sub ID a:

• Difficult to understand the relationships between blocks.

Sub ID b:

• Consistent application of signal lines improves readability.

Sub ID c:

• Deviation from the rules can impair readability.

Verification

Model Advisor check: Check signal line connections (Simulink Check)
