Hi @claudio,

As per my understanding you are trying to import a MDF file in MATLAB.

To solve this, you can make use of the “mdfRead” function. The “mdfRead“ reads channel data from MDF-file.

You can also view MDF-file metadata using the “mdfInfo“ function.

For more clarity you can refer to the below example:

% Replace "VehicleData.mf4" with your filename.
data = mdfRead("VehicleData.mf4");
fileInfo = mdfInfo("VehicleData.mf4")

For detail, please see this MathWorks documentation below for more information on “Read Data from MDF-Files”:

Unfortunately I have not Matlab 2023a. Does the "read" function have limitations on the size of the input file?
