MATLAB: Where to save a downloaded block in R2007b

simulink

I have download an Real Time Block from the mathworks site for using in Simulink, I extracted the zip file an have several files with several extension. But I don't know in which directory I have to save them?

Best Answer

You can extract the zip file to any folder you like. The file extension is likely to be .mdl if it is for Simulink.

Then you can either,

1. After launching MATLAB, change your MATLAB current directory to that folder, then you can open that .mdl file

2. Add that folder to your MATLAB path. Click menu File->Set Path... Then you'll be able to run that .mdl file anywhere in MATLAB.

Simulink opens the .mdl file in graphical ways. So you can not read ASCII information of .mdl file simulink window.

But you can open the file in Notepad or Wordpad or any ascii reader to read the information in text formate.

For windows operating system,

Right click on .mdl file and choose Open with...
Select Notepad or Wordpad or any other ascii reader.
Click OK.

Looks like this only happens when that eachBlock variable is referring to a model (and not an individual block).

You can filter your search to include only blocks, and not models. Also, you could remove the for-loop since you can pass in a cell array of block names into get_param. Try this:

blocks = find_system(bdroot,'Type','Block');
priorities = get_param(blocks,'Priority');
