Create a matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore for a Signal
Simulate the sldemo_fuelsys model, which is configured to log several signals, to create data in the Simulation Data Inspector repository.
sim('sldemo_fuelsys')
Use the Simulation Data Inspector programmatic interface to get the signal ID for the signal.
runCount = Simulink.sdi.getRunCount;
latestRunID = Simulink.sdi.getRunIDByIndex(runCount);
latestRun = Simulink.sdi.getRun(latestRunID);
speedSigID = latestRun.getSignalIDByIndex(4);
Use the signal ID to create a matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore for the speed signal.
speedSDIds = matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore(speedSigID);
Verify the Contents of the Datastore
Check the Name property of the matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore to verify that it matches your expectations.
speedSDIds.Name
ans =
'map'
You can also use the preview method to check that the first ten samples in the signal look correct.
speedSDIds.preview
ans=10×1 timetable

Process Signal Data with the matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore
When your signal is too large to fit into memory, you can use the readData method to read chunks of data from the Simulation Data Inspector repository to incrementally process your data. Use the hasdata method as the condition for a while loop to incrementally process the whole signal. For example, find the maximum signal value.
latestMax = [];
while speedSDIds.hasdata
speedChunk = speedSDIds.read;
speedChunkData = speedChunk.Data;
latestMax = max([speedChunkData; latestMax]);
end
latestMax
latestMax = 0.8897
On each read operation, the read method updates the read position for the start of the next read operation. After reading some or all of the matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore, you can reset the read position to start again from the beginning of the signal.
speedSDIds.reset
Process Signal Data in Memory
When the signal referenced by your matlab.io.datastore.sdidatastore fits into memory, you can use the readall method to read all the signal data into memory for processing, rather than reading and processing the data incrementally with the read method. The readall method returns a timetable with all the signal data.
speedTimetable = speedSDIds.readall;
speedMax = max(speedTimetable.Data)
speedMax = 0.8897
