Model systems with a finite number of states. Use states to graphically denote the modes of the system. Conditional transitions provide pathways between these modes. Control the behavior of your system through actions in states and on transitions.

Model finite state machines by using Stateflow® charts.
Represent Operating Modes by Using States
Create states to describe the operating modes of a reactive system.
Transition Between Operating Modes
Use conditional transitions as pathways between states.
Combine Transitions and Junctions to Create Branching Paths
Create decision points in transition paths.
Modeling Guidelines for Stateflow Charts
Efficiently model charts by using states, transitions, and events.
Rules for Naming Stateflow Objects
Create unique identifiers for your Stateflow objects.
Program a chart based on the operating modes of a feeder system.
