Start/Read Timer blocks in Simevents within Matlab R2017a?

I have recently upgraded from R2015a to R2017a. I have been using the Start/Read Timer blocks in previous releases of SimEvents; they put a "stamp" with the time on the entity and so it is very easy and understandable for my students to know "how much time an entity has been recirculating in the process". I have seen that the "timer" blocks are not present in the new version of SimEvents. Do you know what are the equivalent blocks that will do the thing? Thank you very much! Albert

If you look in "Design Patterns" there is a time stamp entity one that shows how to stamp the entity at creation. At the end you could do the same thing and output the difference.

Thank you very much for your quick answer!

Hello! Do you have an example how to measure time in system of an entity? Thank you.
