Monitoring the Live Data on Appdesigner GUI

Hi,

I am designing a GUI which consists of diffrent stages for industrial application. Now, I am trying to control temperature controller via serial communication. My script is working well. I can monitor the instantaneous temperature value when I press the button. However, I need to monitor the temperature during the process. Is there a way to monitor it live (via editfield or grap)?

Thank you for your help

 % Button pushed function: Button
        function ButtonPushed(app, event)

% Create a Modbus Object.
m = modbus('serialrtu', 'COM1');
m.StopBits = 2;
m.Timeout = 3;

% Save the Server ID specified.
serverId = 247;

% Holding Registers
% Read 1 'int16', and 1 'uint16' Holding Registers starting from address 1.
app.data = read(m, 'holdingregs', 1, [1, 1], serverId, {'int16', 'uint16'});
modbusData.Display_Temperature = app.data(1);
modbusData.Temperature_Limit = app.data(2);
t = num2str(app.data(1));

app.EditField.Value=t;
% Read 1 Holding Register of type 'uint16' starting from address 81.
modbusData.Output_Action = read(m, 'holdingregs', 81, 1, serverId, 'uint16');

Holding Registers
Write a value 300 of type 'uint16' to a Holding Register at address 2.
write(m, 'holdingregs', 2, 300, serverId, 'uint16');

Clean Up
Clear the Modbus Explorer session variables.
% Clear the Modbus Object created.
clear m

% Clear the Server ID.
clear serverId

% Clear the temporary variable - 'data'.
clear data

Hi,

You can implement a timer function in MATLAB AppDesiner. When the timer executes it will read the temperature data from modbus.
