### Description

The Ramp block generates a signal that starts at a specified time and value and changes by a specified rate. The block's Slope , Start time and Initial output parameters determine the characteristics of the output signal. All must have the consistent dimensions after scalar expansion.

### Dialog box

- Slope
  The rate of change of the generated signal.
  Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1.

- Start time
  The time at which the signal begins to be generated.
  Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1.

- Initial output
  The initial value of the signal.
  Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1.

### Default properties

- always active: yes
- direct-feedthrough: no
- zero-crossing: yes
- mode: yes
- regular outputs:
  - port 1 : size [1,1] / type 1
- number/sizes of activation inputs: 0
- number/sizes of activation outputs: 0
- continuous-time state: no
- discrete-time state: no
- object discrete-time state: no
- name of computational function: ramp
