MAT Settings
Inertia Log Files can be exported to a MatLab MAT file. The MAT Settings can be modified in
the
MAT Settings
window (see Figure 20), accessible via the menu (
Configuration
,
File Types
,
MAT Settings...
) or from the
Export
window.
The MAT file contains a global structure array with a field for each node structure. Each node
structure contains four fields. Field
columns
contains the column names and indices of the
columns,
fields
combines multiple columns into one field (e.g. ax, ay and ax into accelero-
meter),
data
contains the sensor data, and
samplingRate
contains the sampling rate.
The following settings can be modified for the MAT file format:
•
Struct Name
: The name of the global structure array.
•
MAT Version
: The MAT-file version (see MatLab documentation).
•
MAT Compression
: Enable compression of the MAT file.
•
No. of Samples
: The number of samples in the MAT file. This option is not relevant when
exporting an
itlog
file to MAT. Only when logging directly to a MAT file, the number of sam-
ples to store needs to be known beforehand. If more (or less) samples are logged, these are
ignored (or filled with NaN).
The sensor data added to the MAT file can be configured by (un)checking the desired
Columns
.
Default columns for
ProMove-mini
,
V-Mon 4000
and
All
can be loaded using the
Defaults
but-
tons.
Apply
will save the settings and close the window,
Close
will discard any modified settings
and close the window.
