Description
The Rate Limiter block limits the first derivative of the signal passing through it. The output changes no faster than the specified limit.
Parameters

Max slope
The limit of the derivative of an increasing input signal.
Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1
Min slope
The limit of the derivative of a decreasing input signal.
Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1
Default properties
always active: no
direct-feedthrough: yes
zero-crossing: no
mode: no
regular inputs:

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
