2 Targets and Scopes in the MATLAB

Interface

Getting the Value of a Scope Property

You can list a property value in the MATLAB window or assign that value

to a MATLAB variable. With the xPC Target software you can use either a

function syntax or an object property sy ntax.

The syntax

get(scope_object_vector, property_name) can be replaced by

scope_object_vector(index_vector).property_name

For example, to assign the number of samples from the scope object sc1,

• In the MATLAB window, type

numsamples = sc1.NumSamples

• Alternatively, you can type

numsamples = get(sc1,'NumSamples')

sc1.get(NumSamples)

Note that y ou cannot u se dot notation to get the values of vecto r o bject

properties. To g et properties of a vector of scopes, use the

get method. For

example, assume you have two scopes,

1 and 2, assigned to the variable sc12.

To get the value of

NumSamples for these scopes, in the MATL AB window, type

get(sc12,'NumSamples')

You get a result like the following:

ans =

[300]

To get a list of readable properties, type scope_object. The property values

are listed in the MATLAB window.
