canMessageReplayBlockStruct

Convert CAN messages for use as CAN Replay block output

Syntax

msgstructofarrays = canMessageReplayBlockStruct(msgs)

Description

msgstructofarrays = canMessageReplayBlockStruct(msgs) formats specified CAN messages for use with the CAN Replay block. The CAN Replay block requires a specific format for CAN messages, defined by a structure of arrays containing the ID, Extended, Data, and other message elements.

Use this function to assign the formatted message structure to a variable. Then save this variable to a MAT-file. The CAN Replay block mask allows selection of this MAT file and the variable within it, to define the messages to replay in a Simulink^® model.

Examples

Create CAN Replay Block Message Structure
