Saving the Model
When you save a model that contains ActiveX Control blocks, MATLAB® saves additional files that describe each ActiveX Control block. For example, if you save the model described in this chapter with the name sample, MATLAB saves the following files.
sample.mdl
sample@Generic_Knob.ax
sample@Lower_Right.ax
The files with the .ax extension describe the ActiveX Control blocks. Note that these files are not text files. They save the current state of the ActiveX control. If you have not changed any properties on the control, and are content with the default value for the control, you may delete or ignore the .ax files. They will reinitialize themselves to the exact state in which they are stored in the library.
If any ActiveX Control blocks are contained in subsystems, the subsystem name is also included in the filename. For example, if this sample model contains a subsystem named SubSystem, which contains the Generic Knob control, the following file is saved.
sample@SubSystem@Generic_Knob.ax
