Description
Simulink invokes this optional method at the beginning of a simulation.
It should initialize the continuous and discrete states, if any, of this
S-Function block. Use ssGetContStates and/or ssGetDiscStates to
get the states. This method can also perform any other initialization
activities that this S-function requires, such as allocating memory or
setting up user data.
