Hi Marcus, Thanks for your reply. I am not sure how the integration works, but if you know how the Integrate block does the integration, then that is how my flowgraph does it. I suspect it is "sum /reduce /dump" as you mentioned, though perhaps we would need to investigate the Integrate block's source code to be sure? Thanks in advance for any additional suggestions you might have on this!
