set (xPC Target)

Change property values for target objects

Syntax

MATLAB command line

set(target_object)
set(target_object, property_name1, property_value1, 
property_name2, property_value2, . . .)
target_object.set('property_name1', property_value1)
set(target_object, property_name_vector, property_value_vector)
target_object.property_name = property_value

Target PC command line - Commands are limited to the target object properties: stoptime, sampletime, and parameters.

parameter_name = parameter_value
stoptime = floating_point_number
sampletime = floating_point_number

Arguments

target_object

Name of a target object.

'property_name'

Name of a scope object property. Always use quotation marks.

property_value
Value for a scope object property. Always use quotation marks for character strings; quotation marks are optional for numbers.

parameter_name
The letter p followed by the parameter index. For example, p0, p1, p2.

`target_object`	Name of a target object.
`'property_name'`	Name of a scope object property. Always use quotation marks.
`property_value`	Value for a scope object property. Always use quotation marks for character strings; quotation marks are optional for numbers.
`parameter_name`	The letter p followed by the parameter index. For example, `p0`, `p1`, `p2`.

Description

Method of a target object. Sets the properties of the target object. Not all properties are user-writable.

Properties must be entered in pairs, or using the alternate syntax, as one-dimensional cell arrays of the same size. This means they have to both be row vectors or both column vectors, and the corresponding values for properties in property_name_vector are stored in property_value_vector.

The function set typically does not return a value. However, if called with an explicit return argument, for example, a = set(target_object, property_name, property_value), it returns the value of the properties after the indicated settings have been made.

Examples

Get a list of writable properties for a scope object.

sc1 = getscope(tg,1)
set(sc1)
xPC Target Object:
    Writable Properties
    StopTime            
    SampleTime          
    ViewMode            
    LogMode             : [0 | 1]
    ShowParameters      : [On | {Off}]
    ShowSignals         : [On | {Off}]

Change the property showsignals to on.

tg.set('showsignals', 'on') or set(tg, 'showsignals', 'on')

As an alternative to the method set, use the target object property showsignals. In the MATLAB window, type

```
tg.showsignals ='on'
```
