Syntax

showContents(simIn)

Description

example

showContents(simIn) displays the contents of the Simulink.SimulationInput object simIn as a table. The function lets you view all the information such as block parameters, variables, model parameters, external Inputs and the initial states that are set in the Simulink.SimulationInput object. You can view the contents of a single Simulink.SimulationInput object at a given time.

Examples

Open Live Script

Use the showContents function to view the simulation configuration stored in a Simulink.SimulationInput object.

Open the model . 

open_system('ex_sldemo_househeat')

Create a Simulink.SimulationInput object for the model ex_sldemo_househeat. 

simIn = Simulink.SimulationInput('ex_sldemo_househeat');

Configure a variable value and model parameter values on the Simulink.SimulationInput object.

simIn = setVariable(simIn,'cost',50);
simIn = setModelParameter(simIn,'Start','0','Stop','50');

View the configuration stored on the Simulink.SimulationInput object.
