Thread Subject:

If Statements w/ To Workspace Blocks Help Please!

hey everybody,

I'm currently using an if statement for 2 cases:
1. time = 0
2. time > 0

For each case I'm modifying a variable A (differently in each case).
The problem comes when I try to use the To Workspace block in both of the cases. I get the following error:

Duplicate data logging variable name simulink

Is there a way solve this problem. I want to be able to get the variable A from both time = 0 and time > 0, so that I can plot it against time. Thanks for the help in advance.

How is the variable A propagated through the model?

Assuming it's a signal then put the To Workspace block after the t=0 and t>0 values have been merged.

I just tried this and it actually didn't work. I forgot to mention that the variable is a read/write data block. This is because the variable A gets modified and used throughout the simulation. When I used the write data A on both the if and else statements, and then merged it at the end, the read data A block wasn't reading properly. Sorry if this is confusing, but if possible, would anybody be willing to look at my simulink model? Thanks again in advance!
