showContents

View the contents of the Simulink.SimulationInput object

Syntax

showContents(in)

Description

showContents(in) displays the contents of the Simulink.SimulationInput object as a table. The method, showContents, 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

View the Contents of the Simulink.SimulationInput Object

This example shows the contents of the Simulink.SimulationInput object by using the showContents method on the object.

Open and Load Model

Open and load the model .

open_system('ex_sldemo_househeat')
load_system('ex_sldemo_househeat')

Create a SimulationInput Object for a Model

Create a Simulink.SimulationInput object for the model ex_sldemo_househeat.

in = Simulink.SimulationInput('ex_sldemo_househeat');

Set a Variable and Model Parameters on the Model

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