xPC Target

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 xPC Target you can use either a function syntax or an object property syntax.

The syntax get(scope_object_vector, property_name) can be replaced by

• scope_object_vector.property_name
• scope_object_vector(index_vector).property_name

For example to assign the start time from the scope object sc1:

1. In the MATLAB window, type

beginrun = sc1.starttime 

2. Alternately, you could type

beginrun = get(sc1,'starttime') or sc1.get('starttime')

Assignment may also be done using a vector of scope objects, for example scopetypes = allscopes([1, 2]).type. Notice, the indices are MATLAB vector indices and not xPC Target scope indices.

To get a list of readable properties, type scope_object. Without assigning to a variable, the property values are listed in the MATLAB window.

Note    Method names are case-sensitive, but property name are not.
