Problem with name of simulink model slTuner

Dear forum members,

I would like to use slTuner to tune control gains of Simulink models.

The simulations are stored in "+slxFiles/model.slx".

The name of the model is stored in a variable :

mdlName = '+slxFiles/model.slx';

When I try to open the simulink file this way, everything works fine :

open(mdlName);

But the problem occurs when I call the slTuner function :

slTuner(mdlName,TunedBlocks);
Error using slLinearizer (line 193)
'+slxFiles' is not a valid model name because it is not a valid MATLAB function name.

Why does slTuner cut the name after the "/" ? How can I solve this issue ?

Thanks in advance !

Hello,

Old issue but might help someone some day...

Speaking about file path '+slxFiles/model.slx' is correct.

But all functions that requires a model name (open_system, slbuild, get_param...) just want the model name, no path, no extension.

In order to open a Simulink model you should use open_system instead of open.

In your case, modelName = 'model'. And the model file has to be in the Matlab Path or in the pwd.
