This block outputs a periodic signal that indicates the type of the day. It can for example be used to generate a signal that indicates whether the current time is a work day or a non-working day. The output signal is of type Buildings.Controls.Types.Day.
The parameter nout determines how many days should
be sent to the output. For applications in which only the current
day is of interest, set nout=1. For applications in
which the load is predicted for the next 24 hours, set
nout=2 in order to output the type of day for today
and for tomorrow.
The transition from one day type to another always happens when the simulation time is a multiple of 1 day. Hence, if the simulation starts for example at t=-3600 seconds, then the first transition to another day will be at t=0.
