Extracted elements

This tab is used to define what elements from the input string vector to extract to scalar ports.

This parameter tab is based on the parameter matrix concept. Use the Add button to add a new row and the remove button to remove a selected row. The columns of the matrix are described below.

Element number

This is the element number (0 based) from the input string vector to extract.

Datatype

This is the desired data type for of the extracted element. The alternatives are:

• String. The extracted element will be exposed on a String port value.
• Double. The extracted element will be exposed on a Analog port value.
• Boolean. The extracted element will be exposed on a Digital port value.

If it is impossible to cast the actual element to the desired data type, the component will issue a warning.

Port name 

This property is used to specify the desired port name for the extracted vector element.
