Saturate on overflow

Select the diagnostic action to take if the value of a signal is too large to be represented by the signal data type, resulting in a saturation.

Category: Diagnostics

Default: warning

none: Simulink^® software takes no action.
warning: Simulink software displays a warning.
error: Simulink software terminates the simulation or code generation and displays an error message.

This diagnostic applies only to overflows which saturate for integer and fixed-point data types.
To check for floating-point overflows (for example, Inf or NaN) for double or single data types, select the Inf or NaN block output diagnostic. (See Inf or NaN block output for more information.)
During code generation, Simulink may simulate a few blocks in the model for optimization purposes. If simulation of these blocks triggers this diagnostic to report an error, the software terminates code generation.

Parameter: IntegerSaturationMsg

Value: 'none' | 'warning' | 'error'
