Embedded Controller a version of the Controller tool for embedding inside components. As with the Controller it can be thought of as a feedback loop. It contains the convergence algorithms, case initialization and range information to bring about a solution. There are various commonly needed functions such as checking for the existence of a file, getting directory contents, parsing full-path file names, etc. Log Generator provides the infrastructure to allow a component or application to use the Log Manager tool for handling logs.
Parser facilitates parsing of strings.
Table Tool provides table lookup capability for custom tables developed in Excel or a simple comma delimited file. Validator facilitates validating data to specific types, typically from user input. Allows validation that an input is an integer, numeric or alphabetic. Currently there is one application library for Model Engineer, the Thermal Systems Library, and it will be undergoing some major expansions over the upcoming months. If the user can describe a set of components in terms of inputs and outputs and can define the equations used to calculate the outputs, then Object Engineer will write the code to create that library.
