Hold signal value in after a trigger then resume with the rest of the signal

Hello, I have a signal in simulink that looks like this: [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10] I would like to run the simulation and when I hit a trigger action the signal would hold its current value, for example the output would be [1 2 3 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5....] for an indefinite amount of time until I hit a trigger action that would continue logging the signal from where it stopped, for example [.... 5 5 5 5 5 5 6 7 8 9 10]. The examples on the web I have seen only hold the value of the signal but it does not continue where it left off but rather it continues the signal at a certain point ahead in time missing some portion of the signal. I would appreciate any help, Thank you!

Hi Yan,

What about a triggered subsystem containing your counter, like in the picture below? That counter would only be incremented if a trigger is received and would be held at its current value otherwise.

Best,
