The Xentara FMU plugin parameters are the values that must be configured for the simulation within the FMU model. The FMU has internal data representing its state. This internal state consists especially of the values of the continuous states, iteration variables, Parameter values, Inputs values, delay buffers, file identifiers, and FMU internal status information. The configuration parameter initialValue is used to set the values of the parameter, or it can be passed on by another xentara datapoint.

DataType

The Xentara FMU plugin parameters supports the following data types:

Name	Bit Size
Boolean	8
Integer	32
Real	64
