outputs = [2 7];
The final model sysc has these particular inputs and outputs.

model, be sureto verify yourmodel in as many ways as you can. Here are some
suggestions:
Make sure the poles of the unconnected model
sys match the poles of the
various blocks in the diagram.
Check that the final poles and DC gains are reasonable.
Plot the
step and bode responses of sysc and compare them with your
expectations.
If you need to work extensively with blockdiagrams, Simulink is a much easier
and more comprehensive tool for model building.
Example Consider the following block diagram
Given the matrices of the state-space model
sys2
A = [ -9.0201 17.7791
-1.6943 3.2138 ];
B = [ -.5112 .5362
