In a Test Sequence block, output a constant signal of value 1 while the test step is active.

A test step that outputs a constant value of 1 while active.

The Test Sequence block outputs a signal equal to 1:

The output of the Test Sequence block, shown in a Scope block.

In a Test Sequence block, generate a signal that increases one unit every 3 seconds in the test step.

A test step that outputs a signal that increases one unit every 3 seconds while active.

The Test Sequence block outputs a signal equal to et/3:

The output of the Test Sequence block, shown in a Scope block.
