Signal Logging to a File

Logging signals to a file saves data to a variable in your MATLAB®workspace, and then saves that data to a MAT-file. You can use MATLAB functions for data analysis and MATLAB plotting functions for visualization on the data in the MAT-file.

The steps in this process are:

If your model containsOutportblocks, you cannot save signal data inRun in Kernelmode. Simulink®supports signal logging to a file inConnected IOmode or accelerator mode only, when Simulink runs the simulation algorithm.

Tip

InRun in Kernelmode, do not enter or select parameters on theData I/Otab in the Configuration Parameters dialog box. Instead, add aScopeblock to your Simulink model and use it to log signal data for data archiving.
