    This example shows how to get the simscape.instrumentation.VariableTable object for the Ideal Torque Source block in the Permanent Magnet DC Motor example model.

    To open the model, enter:

    openExample('simscape/PermanentMagnetDCMotorExample')

    Store the default variable table for the Load Torque block.

    table = simscape.instrumentation.defaultVariableTable('PermanentMagnetDCMotor/Load Torque');

    Update the configuration of the default variable table and apply the table to the Load Torque block.

    table("t").Name = "var";
table("t").Logging = on;
table("C.w").Unit = simscape.Unit("deg/s");
simscape.instrumentation.setVariableTable('PermanentMagnetDCMotor/Load Torque', table)

    To get the variable table for the Load Torque block, enter:

    variableTable_Load_Torque = simscape.instrumentation.getVariableTable('PermanentMagnetDCMotor/Load Torque')
    variableTable_Load_Torque = 

VariableTable (string ⟼ VariableConfiguration) with 5 variable(s):
 
               Name       Unit     Logging
             _________    _____    _______

    C.w ⟼    <missing>    deg/s     false 
    R.w ⟼    <missing>    rad/s     false 
    S   ⟼    <missing>    N*m       false 
    t   ⟼    var          N*m       true 
    w   ⟼    <missing>    rad/s     false
