Model Configuration Parameters: Data Import/Export

The Data Import/Export category includes parameters for configuring input data for simulation (for example, for Inport blocks) and output data (for example, from Outport blocks).

Parameter	Description
Input	Loads input data from a workspace before the simulation begins.
Initial state	Loads the model initial states from a workspace before simulation begins.
Time	Saves simulation time data to the specified variable during simulation.
States	Saves state data to the specified MATLAB® variable during a simulation.
Output	Saves signal data to the specified MATLAB variable during simulation.
Final states	Saves the logged states of the model at the end of a simulation to the specified MATLAB variable.
Format	Select the data format for saving states, output, and final states data.
Limit data points	Limit the number of data points to export to the MATLAB workspace.
Decimation	Specify that Simulink® software output only every N points, where N is the specified decimation factor.
Save complete SimState in final state	At the end of a simulation, Simulink saves the complete set of states of the model, including logged states, to the specified MATLAB variable.
Signal logging	Globally enable or disable signal logging to the workspace for this model.
Data stores	Globally enable or disable logging of Data Store Memory block variables for this model.
Log Dataset data to file	Log data to MAT-file.
Output options	Select options for generating additional output signal data for variable-step solvers.
Refine factor	Specify how many points to generate between time steps to refine the output.
Output times	Specify times at which Simulink software should generate output in addition to, or instead of, the times of the simulation steps taken by the solver used to simulate the model.
Single simulation output	Enable the single-output format of the sim command.
Logging intervals	Set intervals for logging
Record logged workspace data in Simulation Data Inspector	Specify whether to send logged states and Simscape™ data to the Simulation Data Inspector when a simulation pauses or completes.

These configuration parameters are in the Advanced parameters section.

Parameter	Description
Dataset signal format	Format for logged Dataset leaf elements.
