Hello!

There are several ways in which you can import excel data and use it in Simulink:

• Use the From Spreadsheet block in Simulink to read data from Microsoft® Excel® and outputs the data as a signal. Here is a Blog post giving further details on Importing Data From Excel into a simulation using the From Spreadsheet Block.

Or, alternatively, you can import Excel data into MATLAB and then use those MATLAB variables as inputs to Simulink:

• Use the importdata function in MATLAB and create an array (say ‘A’) of all the values imported and then change the variable name in each block to A(1), A(2),…….A(100)
• Or similarly, use the Import Tool to import data from a spreadsheet into the MATLAB workspace.
