How to set value of Simulink Rocker Switch from Matlab

Dear all,

how would I set from Matlab a value of Rocker Switch in simulink.

Given:

Switch "MySwitch" with Labels Sommer=0 and Winter=1

Both variants produce the error below

1. set_param('mymodel/MySwitch','Value','Sommer')
2. set_param('mymodel/MySwitch','Value','0')

MWDashboardBlock block (mask) does not have a parameter

named 'Value'

What is the proper way to set value of this block from Matlab

MyGoal:

Set value of the switch

Start simulation

Start simulation is ok, by all my tries to set value of the switch fail.

Thank you

This is a Simulink Dashboard block. It needs to be "binding" with another block.

Add a Constant block of value "1". Bound the Rocker Switch block with the Constant block. Then you will see:

When you click the Rocker Switch block, the Constant value changes

When you change the value of the Constant block, the Rocker Switch block switches.

So to change it using Command, you need to run set_param('ConstantBlock','Value','1')
