Output file with mat format
If you select mat format as output file, output file contains structures named as each Signal name. This structure contain ‘time’ and ‘signals’ in each Signal.
Below table is the example of the output file.
| Signal Name | element |
| （例）Signal1 | time |
| values | |
| （例）Signal2 | time |
| values |
The character length of structure is limited with 31 characters, so the long Signal name will be shorten 31 characters automatically.
If you want to make plot, this structure is very useful. Below is sample to make plot.
