MATLAB: Simulink to matlab results display

Question

I'm trying to display some results from simulink. At the moment I have them as shown here:

As the datasets are so different I would like to display them as shown here:

What's the easiest way to do this? Export them back into matlab is what I have been trying, using the simout function. But then trying to plot them in the matlab environment gives me errors.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Export the signals from Simulink by using the 'To Workspace' block. Set the save format as 'Structure With Time'. In Matlab you can then plot the data using the plot command:

    plot(simout.time, simout.signals.values);

However, if you have muxed multiple signals together (such as the four in the attached image), you can use subplot to show all the various signals individually. For example:

subplot(4,1,1)
plot(simout.time, simout.signals.values(:,1));
subplot(4,1,2)
plot(simout.time, simout.signals.values(:,2));
subplot(4,1,3)
plot(simout.time, simout.signals.values(:,3));
subplot(4,1,4)
plot(simout.time, simout.signals.values(:,4));
