    Syntax

    VariableTable = simscape.instrumentation.defaultVariableTable(blockName)

    Description

    VariableTable = simscape.instrumentation.defaultVariableTable(blockName) returns the default VariableTable object, VariableTable, for a given block, blockName. The default variable table displays the block variables that are available for logging, where each row represents a block variable. The table displays the properties of the simscape.instrumentation.VariableConfiguration object associated with each variable. You can apply a modified default variable table to a given block using simscape.instrumentation.setVariableTable, but the simscape.instrumentation.defaultVariableTable function always returns the unmodified variable table.
