sim command in Matlab and ToWorkspace in SIMULINK dont work togheter?

Hi matlab commuinity,

I want to run a simulation through the command sim('...') in a matlab file and extract the input and output data through a ToWorkspace block. It seems like that that does not work out. Why is that?

Best regards

Hi Benjamin,

Specify an ouput argument for the sim command, like so:

ouputdata = sim('mymodel');

All of the ToWorkspace blocks (and other stuff as well) will be in outputdata, which can be accesses via dot indexing among other options. Start with the doc page for sim; it will tell you exactly the type of object that output data instantiates, and the doc page for that object can be further explored.
