Note The % variable property allows you to set parameters of your model by assigning
values to corresponding variables in the Xmath workspace. Before simulating this model,
you set the mass parameter in the Xmath command window by typing an assignment to the
Xmath variable m (refer to step 3 of the Simulating a SuperBlock section). In this way you
can simulate the model with different parameter settings without editing the block diagram.
