The Variable Limiter block passes each input signal as output so long as the input is within the upper and lower limits specified by the two additional inputs $\mathrm{limit1}$ and $\mathrm{limit2}$. If this is not the case, the corresponding limit is passed as output.

The Signal Size parameter assigns the dimension of the input and output connectors.

$\mathrm{uMax}\=\{\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{noEvent}\left(\max \left(\mathrm{limit1}\,\mathrm{limit2}\right)\right)& \mathrm{strict}\\ \max \left(\mathrm{limit1}\,\mathrm{limit2}\right)& \mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}$

$\mathrm{uMin}\=\{\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{noEvent}\left(\min \left(\mathrm{limit1}\,\mathrm{limit2}\right)\right)& \mathrm{strict}\\ \min \left(\mathrm{limit1}\,\mathrm{limit2}\right)& \mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}$

$y_i\&equals;\{\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{uMax}& \mathrm{uMax}<u_i\\ \mathrm{uMin}& u_i<\mathrm{uMin}\\ u_i& \mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}$
