The Simulink Coder Support Package for VEX does have some blocks that are sensor-specific for the most commonly used sensors - such as the ultrasonic sensor and the gyroscope blocks you have already used in your model. The support package also provides more generic blocks that let you interface with any sensor you plug into your digital or analog ports.
In this case, you have an analog accelerometer to plug into your VEX microcontroller. When plugged in, the accelerometer feeds data to 3 analog ports (one per axis). To read this data in your Simulink model, use the generic "Analog Input" block from the VEX sensors library, as shown in the screenshot below. If your accelerometer is plugged into analog ports 1, 2, and 3, this Simulink set-up would allow you to read the data from each of those ports. Note that you will need one analog input block per analog port used.
If you are using MATLAB R2018b you can use the attached blocks to set the smart motor voltages and read advanced motor parameters like voltage, current, power, torque, efficiency and temperature.
All you have to do to use these blocks in your models is copy/paste them from the model attached, and make sure that the respective p-file included is on the same folder as your working model.
