Creating a bound module (IDL code)
1. Right-click the Package or Model that is to own the Bound Module, point to New, point to IDL Profile, and then click Bound Module.
2. From the Type Selector dialog, select the Template Module that is being instantiated by the Bound Module, and then click OK.
3. From the Type Selector dialog, select the Message or Structure that is used for the instantiation, and then click OK.
Note that if you select a Structure, the IDL Profile changes that Structure to a Message.
