Generate Data for Run

For this example, create timeseries data for sine and cosine signals.

% Create timeseries workspace data
time = linspace(0, 20, 101);

sine_vals = sin(2*pi/5*time);
sine_ts = timeseries(sine_vals,time);
sine_ts.Name = 'Sine, T=5';

cos_vals = cos(2*pi/8*time);
cos_ts = timeseries(cos_vals,time);
cos_ts.Name = 'Cosine, T=8';

Create a Run and Return Signal IDs

You can use the Simulink.sdi.createRun syntax with multiple return arguments to get the signal IDs more directly instead of accessing the signal IDs through a Simulink.sdi.Run object.

[runID,runIndex,sigIDs] = Simulink.sdi.createRun('Sinusoids','vars',...
    sine_ts,cos_ts);

cosID = sigIDs(2);
cosSig = Simulink.sdi.getSignal(cosID);

Modify Signal Properties and View in the Simulation Data Inspector

You can use the Simulink.sdi.Signal object to view and modify signal properties and to plot signals in the Simulation Data Inspector.

cosSig.Checked = true;
cosSig.AbsTol = 0.05;
Simulink.sdi.view
cosSig.Name
