    Create the ECU description object for the model.

    descObj=coder.asap2.getEcuDescriptions("rtwdemo_asap2");

    Get the list of available compu methods in the description object using the command:

    find(descObj,"CompuMethod")
    ans = 1x10 string
  Columns 1 through 3

    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."

  Columns 4 through 6

    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."

  Columns 7 through 9

    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_md..."

  Column 10

    "rtwdemo_asap2_md..."

    Filter the compu methods and get the list of compu methods with units as "rpm".

    find(descObj,"CompuMethod",Units='rpm')
    ans = 1x3 string
    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM_..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_CM_..."    "rtwdemo_asap2_mdl..."

    Create and Add a Custom Compu Method

    To add a new compu method to the ASAP2 file, create a custom compu method using the commands:

    CompuMethod_CM1 = coder.asap2.CompuMethod;
CompuMethod_CM1.Name = 'CompuMethod_1';
CompuMethod_CM1.ConversionType = 'LINEAR';
CompuMethod_CM1.Coefficients = [2 3];
CompuMethod_CM1.LongIdentifier = 'longIdentifierTest';
CompuMethod_CM1.Format = '%2.3';
CompuMethod_CM1.Units = 's';

    Add the custom compu method to the ECU description object using the command:

    add(descObj,CompuMethod_CM1);

    Get the properties of the newly added compu method using the command:

    get(descObj,"CompuMethod","CompuMethod_1")
    ans = 
  CompuMethod with properties:

               Name: 'CompuMethod_1'
     LongIdentifier: 'longIdentifierTest'
             Format: '%2.3'
              Units: 's'
       Coefficients: [2 3]
     ConversionType: 'LINEAR'
    CompuVTabValues: [1x1 struct]

    To modify any property of the compu method, use set function. Update the "LongIdentifier" field of the compu method using the command:

    set(descObj,"CompuMethod","CompuMethod_1",LongIdentifier="longIdentifierCM1")

    Generate the ASAP2 file using the updated ECU description object and verify that the ASAP2 file contains the compu method with name "CompuMethod_1".

    coder.asap2.export("rtwdemo_asap2",CustomEcuDescriptions=descObj);
    Following Characteristics or Measurements with unsupported data types are not exported in ASAP2 file. "rtwdemo_asap2_DW.rtwdemo_asap2_mdlref_InstanceDa"

    Delete a Compu Method

    Remove the newly added compu method from the description object using the command:

    delete(descObj,"CompuMethod","CompuMethod_1");

    Create and Add Custom Characteristic

    To add a new characteristic to the ASAP2 file, create a custom characteristic using the commands:

    Parameter_1 = coder.asap2.Characteristic;
Parameter_1.Name = 'Custom_parameter1';
Parameter_1.LongIdentifier = 'longIdentifierParam';
Parameter_1.UpperLimit = 255;
Parameter_1.LowerLimit = 0;

    Add the custom characteristic to the ECU description object using the command:

    add(descObj,Parameter_1);

    Get the properties of the newly added characteristic using the command:

    get(descObj,"Characteristic","Custom_parameter1")
    ans = 
  Characteristic with properties:

                   Name: 'Custom_parameter1'
         LongIdentifier: 'longIdentifierParam'
                   Type: 'VALUE'
             EcuAddress: '0x0000'
        CompuMethodName: 'NO_COMPU_METHOD'
             LowerLimit: 0
             UpperLimit: 255
      EcuAddressComment: ""
    EcuAddressExtension: []
      CalibrationAccess: 'Calibration'
      DisplayIdentifier: ""
                 Format: ""
                BitMask: []
               AxisInfo: []
           RecordLayout: ""
             Dimensions: []
                 Export: 1
             SymbolLink: [1x1 struct]

    To modify any property of the characteristic, use set function. Update the "UpperLimit" field of the characteristic using the command:

    set(descObj,"Characteristic","Custom_parameter1",UpperLimit=128)

    Generate the ASAP2 file using the updated ECU description object and verify that the ASAP2 file contains the characteristic with name "Custom_parameter1".

    coder.asap2.export("rtwdemo_asap2",CustomEcuDescriptions=descObj);
    Following Characteristics or Measurements with unsupported data types are not exported in ASAP2 file. "rtwdemo_asap2_DW.rtwdemo_asap2_mdlref_InstanceDa"

    Remove the newly added characteristic from the description object using the command:

    delete(descObj,"Characteristic","Custom_parameter1");

    Create and Add Custom Measurement

    To add a new measurement to the ASAP2 file, create a custom measurement using the commands:

    Signal_1 = coder.asap2.Measurement;
Signal_1.Name = 'Custom_signal1';
Signal_1.LongIdentifier = 'longIdentifierSignal';
Signal_1.UpperLimit = 255;
Signal_1.LowerLimit = 0;

    Add the custom measurement to the ECU description object using the command:

    add(descObj,Signal_1);

    Get the properties of the newly added measurement using the command:

    get(descObj,"Measurement","Custom_signal1")
    ans = 
  Measurement with properties:

                   Name: 'Custom_signal1'
         LongIdentifier: 'longIdentifierSignal'
               DataType: 'UBYTE'
             EcuAddress: '0x0000'
        CompuMethodName: ""
             LowerLimit: 0
             UpperLimit: 255
                 Raster: [1x1 struct]
      EcuAddressComment: ""
    EcuAddressExtension: []
      CalibrationAccess: 'NoCalibration'
      DisplayIdentifier: ""
                 Format: ""
                BitMask: []
             Dimensions: []
                 Export: 1
             SymbolLink: [1x1 struct]

    To modify any property of the measurement, use set function. Update the "CalibrationAccess" field of the measurement using the command:

    set(descObj,"Measurement","Custom_signal1",CalibrationAccess='Calibration')

    Generate the ASAP2 file using the updated ECU description object and verify that the ASAP2 file contains the measurement with name "Custom_signal1".

    coder.asap2.export("rtwdemo_asap2",CustomEcuDescriptions=descObj);
    Following Characteristics or Measurements with unsupported data types are not exported in ASAP2 file. "rtwdemo_asap2_DW.rtwdemo_asap2_mdlref_InstanceDa"

    Remove the newly added measurement from the description object using the command:

    delete(descObj,"Measurement","Custom_signal1");

    Create and Add a Lookup Table Parameter

    To add a lookup table parameter, create a parameter using the commands:

    LUT_Parameter = coder.asap2.Characteristic;
LUT_Parameter.Name = "custom_lookup_table";
LUT_Parameter.Type = "MAP";

    Create and add axis information to the parameter.

    axis_data = coder.asap2.AxisInfo;
axis_data(1).Name = 'BP3';
axis_data(2).Name = 'Bp4';
axis_data(1).CompuMethodName = 'rtwdemo_asap2_CM_double';
axis_data(2).CompuMethodName = 'rtwdemo_asap2_CM_double';
axis_data(1).MaxAxisPoints = '3';
axis_data(2).MaxAxisPoints = '3';
axis_data(1).AxisType = 'STD_AXIS';
axis_data(2).AxisType = 'STD_AXIS';
LUT_Parameter.AxisInfo = axis_data;

    Add the lookup table parameter to the description object.

    add(descObj,LUT_Parameter)

    Generate the ASAP2 file using the updated ECU description object and verify that the ASAP2 file contains the lookup table parameter with name "custom_lookup_table".

    coder.asap2.export("rtwdemo_asap2",CustomEcuDescriptions=descObj);
    Following Characteristics or Measurements with unsupported data types are not exported in ASAP2 file. "rtwdemo_asap2_DW.rtwdemo_asap2_mdlref_InstanceDa"
