Use excel as input to Simulink model

I have a simulink model which has various input parameters. I want tp use an excel sheet or a matlab file to input values into the simulink model. I want to change values in the excel sheet and the simulink model should take the changed values for the simulation without any additional importing in the workspace. Is this possible? I mean change the values in excel sheet, run the simulation and get the updated results. This is what I am looking for.

Hi Lokesh,

1) In order to provide inputs to a simulink model from a .mat file you could leverage From File block in Simulink.

2) In order to load the initialization parameters of a Simulink model from a .mat file, you could leverage the callback functions where you can load the parameters into model at appropriate time. For mor information, you could look at the documentation page of Model Callbacks.

Hope this helps!
