Importing and Exporting from the LTI Viewer

Importing and Exporting Models -- the LTI Viewer

To import models into the LTI Viewer, select Import under the Edit menu. This opens the LTI Browser, shown below.

Use the LTI Browser to import LTI models into or from the LTI Viewer workspace.
To import a model:

Click on the desired model in the LTI Browser List. To perform multiple selections:

Hold the Control key and click on nonadjacent models.
Hold the Shift key while clicking to select multiple adjacent models.

Press the OK or Apply Button

Note that you can only import models with identical numbers of inputs and outputs into a single LTI Viewer. For importing, the LTI Browser lists only the LTI models in the main MATLAB workspace.

Alternatively, you can directly import a model into the LTI Viewer using the ltiview command, as in

ltiview({'step', 'bode'}, modelname)

See the ltiview function for more information.

Exporting Models

Use Export in the File menu to open the LTI Viewer Export window, shown below.

The LTI Viewer Export window lists all the models with responses currently displayed in your LTI Viewer. You can export models back to the MATLAB workspace or to disk. In the latter case, the Control System Toolbox saves the files as MAT-files.

To export single or multiple models, follow the steps described in the importing models section above. If you choose Export to Disk, this window opens.

Choose a name for your model(s) and press Save. Your models are stored in a MAT-file.
