Store scalar variables in DSP Adv

I used DSP Adv block to build a module which includes tens of scalar variables. I used to different dualmem blocks to store and modify them. Is there another efficient way to store? Thanks J...

Thank your suggestion. Unfortunately, there is not register unit in Advanced DSP builder. I tried to replace it with FIFO. This works but there are 3 delay from read. Anyway this is a smart solution instead of Dualmem which is ram and slower than FIFO.

There is certainly a register block. I use it regularly and is called sample delay(find it some where under one of libraries of ADSPBuilder.

It infers a register or ram depending on delay. setting it to 1 infers a register.
