Visual Cue Narration
Slide Number 1

Title Slide

Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Annotations.
Slide:

Learning Objectives

In this tutorial, we are going to learn:
  • How to specify an annotation and
  • How to define a record
Slide:

System Requirements

To record this tutorial, I am using:
  • OpenModelica 1.9.2
  • You may use any of the following operating systems to practice this tutorial.
Slide:

Prerequisites

To understand and practice this tutorial, you need knowledge of class definition in Modelica.

Please watch the prerequisite tutorials available on our website.

Slide:

Annotations

Annotations can appear at multiple locations in a class.

They may be used to:

  • change simulation settings
  • to add supporting documentation and
  • to add icon and diagram views to a class
Slide:

experiment

In the previous tutorials, we used SimulationSetup button in the toolbar to vary simulation settings.

experiment is a model annotation that may be used to vary the following:

  • Start Time
  • Stop Time
  • Tolerance and
  • Interval

Discussion of Tolerance and Interval are beyond the scope of this tutorial series.

Slide:

Syntax for experiment

Shown here is an an example demonstrating the syntax of experiment annotation.
Now, we shall understand experiment annotation through a class named bouncingBallWithAnnotations.

Let me switch to OMEdit.

Please download all the files available on our website.

Let me open the necessary model files for this tutorial.

Press Ctrl+O.

Go to the appropriate location on your Desktop and select color.mo and bouncingBallWithAnnotations.

These files are now open in OMEdit.

We will first look into bouncingBallWithAnnotations.

This model is an extension of the bouncingBall model which we discussed in previous tutorials.

Please watch the prerequisite tutorials for more information on this model.

Double-click on bouncingBallWithAnnotations in Libraries Browser.

Let me shift OMEdit window to the left for better visibility

Highlight

// experiment(StartTime=0,StopTime=5) //

Switch to text view if the class opens in Icon/Diagram View.

The model is now open on Text View.

Let me scroll down a little bit.

Here, we use the experiment annotation to set startTime to 0 and stopTime to 5 units.

experiment annotation serves the same purpose as Simulation Setup toolbox.

Click on Simulation Setup. Click on Simulation Setup button in the toolbar.

You can see the same stopTime and startTime fields here.

We changed the values of these fields using experiment annotation.

Let us simulate the model now.

Click on Simulate icon. Click on Simulate button.
/* Plotting perspective */

Select h in variables browser.

Select h in variables browser.

Note that the simulation interval is 5 units.

This is due to startTime and ‘StopTime fields of experiment annotation.

Now de-select h and delete the result.
Click on Modeling button Click on Modeling button at bottom right.
Now, let us learn more about adding documentation to a model using annotations.
/* bouncingBallWithAnnotations */


Documentation(info = "This is a bouncing ball model with annotations")

The highlighted text appears in Documentation annotation.

Now, let me show an application of Documentation annotation.

Click on Documentation View button Go to the top left of modeling area.

Click on fourth button which is Documentation View.

/* Documentation View */

Highlight // This is a bouncing ball model with annotations //

You can view the text typed in Documentation annotation in the browser.

This functionality allows us to add useful information for larger models which require documentation.

Close Documentation Browser.

Let me go back to the slides.

Slide:

record

Record is a specialized class used to define a record data structure


For example, bank accounts have records with person’s name, age etc., as fields


Records can only contain variables


They may not contain equations

Slide:

Example of record

Shown here is an example record named Person.

It has name and age as its fields.

Let me switch to OMEdit to demonstrate record definition.

Let me shift OMEdit window to the right.

We will now use the file named Color.

To open it in Textview, double-click on color icon in Libraries Browser.
record color

Real red;

Real blue;

Real green;

end color;

Highlight each one of them separately.

This record has three variables named red, blue and green.
Hover over Simulate You may see that simulate button doesn’t appear in the toolbar.

This indicates that records are not meant to be simulated.

Now let me go back to slides.
Slide:

Records in annotations

It is easier to understand annotation elements as records.

For example, experiment annotation can be considered as a record with StartTime, StopTime, Interval and Tolerance as its fields.

Graphical elements can be interpreted similarly.

We will understand more about the interpretation of annotations as records when we discuss icon and diagram views.

This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
Slide:

About the Spoken Tutorial project
