Question: Using DynamicSystems:-Simulate to simulate an Algebraic System gives error "Error, (in DynamicSystems:-Simulate) should never be here"

Hi Everybody,

I'm having some problems simulating an algebraic system in Maple.  I want to do this for a larger system of equation (~20 equations/20 variables, with 3 inputs), but I'd like to get an idea of the form this should be in.

So, using an example out of Maple help:

with(DynamicSystems);

sys1:=AlgEquation([y=sin(x)],[x],[y],discrete=true,sampletime=0.001);

inp1:=Vector[column]([1,2,3,4,5,6,7]) * 0.1;

res:=Simulate(sys1,[inp1]);

Error, (in DynamicSystems:-Simulate) should never be here

 

I don't understand what this error means.  Reading the example in the help files, says the second argument should be a vector of input values.  What I would assume this would do is plugin x = 0.1, then solve y=sin(0.1), and output y.

Am I missing some syntax, or is my inputs wrong?  There are examples of how to set up an algebraic system in the help files, but no examples of how to simulate them.

Thanks in advance for any help!
