Instrumentation and Visualization in MATLAB

Collect simulation data and statistics, use visualizations to explore your designs in MATLAB^®

Choosing the scaling for the fixed-point variables in your algorithms can be difficult. In the Fixed-Point Designer™ software, you can use a combination of data type override and min/max logging with automatic model-wide instrumentation to help you discover the numerical ranges that your fixed-point data types need to cover. These ranges dictate the appropriate scalings for your fixed-point data types.

Functions

`buildInstrumentedMex`	Generate compiled C code function including logging instrumentation
`showInstrumentationResults`	Results logged by instrumented, compiled C code function
`clearInstrumentationResults`	Clear results logged by instrumented, compiled C code function
