InputControl is an InformationSource, whose output y is given by a →RampInput. It can be used to model some kind of intervention that changes an information input, which the component is connected to, from initialInput to finalInput in a linear fashion over a time span set by the parameter duration starting at startTime.
Notes
This component can be used to indicate interventions that set or change rates of processes (using optional input connectors) or goals, i.e., setpoints.
