Dashboard Switch Reset

Resets state of Simulink Dashboard button based on system state.

You are now following this Submission

Dashboard switches are able to turn a referenced signal on/off, but do not update their own state if the referenced signal changes without user input.

A solution using a triggered subsystem and the Matlab "set_param" function is demonstrated here with simple on/off function. The example system turns itself off after being on for 3 seconds, and resets the dashboard switch to "off".
