MATLAB: Access SIMULINK simulation time while it runs.

Question

I made a simulink model and can simulate it without any problems. I made a variable called simulation_stop_time and instead of changing the simulation time manually I am changing this variable in a matlab script.

Is there a way I can access the simulation time when it goes from 0 – simulation_stop_time? I want to start some functions when the simulation time is in between start to end like this:

   if simulation_stop_time > 20
        signal = 1
   else
        signal = 0;
   end

because if I try to do this, the simulation_stop_time will always be the same value and doesnt change while the simulation runs.

Is there a way to access this simulation while it runs?

use clock block
