Open Model

This example shows what happens when you refresh a Model block after adding a port to the referenced model.

Open the top model and load the referenced model.

open_system('RefreshModelBlockModel');
load_system('RefreshModelBlockMdlRef');

Add an input port to the referenced model. Because the referenced model already has a block named Inport, use the MakeNameUnique option to ensure that the new block name is unique.

add_block('simulink/Ports & Subsystems/In1',...
    'RefreshModelBlockMdlRef/Inport','MakeNameUnique','on');

Refresh one of the Model blocks.

Simulink.ModelReference.refresh('RefreshModelBlockModel/Model');

The refreshed Model block shows the port you added, while the other Model block does not.

Input Arguments
