Specifies the first state that the enclosing region enters when the statechart enters that region. To specify this state, create a transition from the Initial pseudostate to the state that you want to enter first.

You can place this pseudostate within only a region or at the top level of a statechart diagram. Each region must have one and only one Initial pseudostate.

No transitions can enter this pseudostate, and only one transition can exit this pseudostate. Because the statechart executes the initial transition unconditionally, the outgoing transition segment cannot have a trigger or guard.
