Syntax

stopRecording(target_object)

Description

stopRecording(target_object) disables logging in the application and closes the run in the Simulation Data Inspector. The function disables the File Log logging, imports (based on the AutoImportFileLog flag) the File Log data into the Simulation Data Inspector in the current run, exports the data to base workspace based on the flag 'ExportToBaseWorkspace', and stops live streaming. Every time that signal logging and streaming is disabled by using the stopRecording function, Stop Recording button, or disabling the Enable File Log block closes a log run on the Speedgoat® target computer.

The stopRecording function operation responds to the setting of the AutoImportFileLog option. The File Log data from the target is imported if the AutoImportFileLog option is true when you use the stopRecording function.

If the model includes an Enable File Log block, the stopRecording function only stops signal streaming. The block controls signal logging. Also, if the model includes an Enable File Log block, the AutoImportFileLog option has no effect.

For more information about the file logging workflow, see Real-Time Signal Logging and Streaming Basics.

Tip

The startRecording function, stopRecording function, and related buttons are recording controls for streaming to the Simulation Data Inspector and file log. Other types of streaming (such as streaming to apps or to Simulink Real-Time explorer) are not affected by these functions and buttons.

Tip

Because logging and streaming operations are time-intensive and are executed as background tasks on the target computer, start and stop actions do not occur instantly. For example, there is a delay between enabling the log operation and recording the first samples. To avoid missing samples related to an event, start logging data before a trigger event that you are observing.

Examples

Use the stopRecording function to stop recording on the target computer. You also can use the Stop Recording button on the Real-Time tab in the Simulink Editor or in the Simulink Real-Time Explorer.

tg = slrealtime;
load(tg,'slrt_ex_osc')
start(tg);
stopRecording(tg);
