Importing Experimental Data

To fill a table with values based on experimental data, you must add the data to your session.

CAGE uses the Data Sets view to store grids of data. Thus, you need to add a data set to your session as well.

Select File -> New -> Data Set to add a data set to your session. This changes the view to the Data Set view.

You can now import experimental data into the data set:

  1. Select File -> Import -> Data.
  2. In the file browser, select meas_tq_data.csv from the matlab\toolbox\mbc\mbctraining directory.
  1. This set of data includes six columns of data: the test cell settings for engine speed (RPM), and the measured values of torque (tqmeas), engine speed (nmeas), air-fuel ratio (afrmeas), spark angle (spkmeas), and load (loadmeas).

  1. This opens the Data Set Import Wizard. The first screen asks which of the columns of data you want to import. Click Next to import them all.
  1. The following screen asks you to associate variables in your project with data columns in the data.

  1. Highlight N in the Project Assignments column and nmeas in the Data Column, then click the assign button, shown.

  2. Repeat this to associate L with loadmeas. The dialog box should be the same as the following.

  3. Click Finish to close the dialog box.

You now have an empty table and some experimental data in your session. You are ready to fill the table with values based on this data.
