MATLAB: GUI Interface Arduino Error

arduino

Hi I am new in the arduino/matlab interface and I am having a problem.My GUI is a simple 2 button On/Off This is my code:
function varargout = untitled2(varargin)
% UNTITLED2 MATLAB code for untitled2.fig
% UNTITLED2, by itself, creates a new UNTITLED2 or raises the existing
% singleton*.
%




if true
% code
end
% H = UNTITLED2 returns the handle to a new UNTITLED2 or the handle to
% the existing singleton*.
%
% UNTITLED2('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
% function named CALLBACK in UNTITLED2.M with the given input arguments.
%
% UNTITLED2('Property','Value',...) creates a new UNTITLED2 or raises the
% existing singleton*. Starting from the left, property value pairs are
% applied to the GUI before untitled2_OpeningFcn gets called. An
% unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application
% stop. All inputs are passed to untitled2_OpeningFcn via varargin.
%
% *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu. Choose "GUI allows only one
% instance to run (singleton)".
%
% See also: GUIDE, GUIDATA, GUIHANDLES
% Edit the above text to modify the response to help untitled2

Best Answer

The variable 'a' which stores the arduino object is being cleared. Have you checked if that is causing the issue?
