The DeadZone block defines a region of zero output.

If the input is within uMin ... uMax, the output is zero. Outside of this zone, the output is a linear function of the input with a slope of 1.

uMax	Value: Type: Real Description: Upper limits of dead zones
uMin	Value: -uMax Type: Real Description: Lower limits of dead zones
deadZoneAtInit	Value: true Type: Boolean Description: Has no longer an effect and is only kept for backwards compatibility (the implementation uses now the homotopy operator)
