Can I replace the periodic trigger subsystem with a pulse generator?

I couldn't find the periodic trigger subsystem block in the library browser. I found that if I have to code a new subsystem to act as a periodic trigger, I will be using the pulse generator block so I directly connect that generator to the Trigger input of J1939 Transmit block. Do you have any idea about the difference between the two blocks or how can I get the periodic trigger subsystem block?

Thank you

Hi Mohamad Ali Mokhadder.

It is my understanding that you would like to know how to implement periodic trigger subsystem in Simulink. Here are few documentations on how to implement the same:

• Sample Time Propagation in a Function-Call Subsystem: https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/ug/using-function-call-subsystems.html#btsrkjg
• Function-Call Subsystems Specify Periodic Execution: https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/slref/simulink-subsystem-semantics.html#SimulinkSubsystemSemanticsExample-10
