MATLAB: Is it possible to extract separate variables for the logged signals in MATLAB workspace in Simulink 7.0 (R2007b)

Question

A logged signal in a subsystem many levels below the root gets stored like this:

 logsout.subsystem1.subsystem2.subsystem3.y

To avoid this I usually use "To Workspace" blocks and not signal logging.

Is there a way to avoid including the subsystem names hierarchy and just store it like this:

 logsout.y

Answer 1

To extract signal logging objects from signal logs and write them into MATLAB workspace use the UNPACK method.

For example, for the case mentioned above, use

logsout.unpack('all');
