    %% Reading Data from MDF Files
% This example shows you how to read channel data from an MDF file.

%% Open the MDF file
% Before reading channel data from an MDF file, open access to the file 
% with the |mdf| command.
m = mdf('CANape.mf4')

%% Specifying Data to Read
% The |read| command is used to retrieve data from the MDF file with several
% variations. It requires two primary arguments. One is the numeric index 
% of the channel group from which to read. Second is is the name(s) of the 
% channels in the channel group to read. Information about these items is 
% available from the MDF file.
m.ChannelGroup(1)
m.ChannelNames{1}

%% Read a Subset of Data by Index
% To read just a subset of data by index, the index range is provided as
% input to the |read| command.
data = read(m, 1, m.ChannelNames{1}, 1, 10)

%% Read a Specific Data Value by Index
% Providing a single numeric index argument will retrieve the data values
% at that index.
data = read(m, 1, m.ChannelNames{1}, 5)

%% Read a Subset of Data by Time
% To read a subset of data by time, duration arguments are provided as
% input to the |read| command.
data = read(m, 1, m.ChannelNames{1}, seconds(0.50), seconds(0.60))

%% Read a Specific Data Value by Time
% Providing a single duration will retrieve the data values at or closest to
% that timestamp.
data = read(m, 1, m.ChannelNames{1}, seconds(0.55))

%% Output Format Defaults to Timetable
% The default output format of the |read| command is a timetable. This
% option can also be controlled with the |OutputFormat| argument.
data = read(m, 1, 'Triangle', 1, 10, 'OutputFormat', 'timetable')

%% Output Data as Timeseries
% If a timeseries is desired as output, the |OutputFormat| can be specified 
% to the |read| command. When outputting data as a timeseries, only a 
% single channel may be read at a time.
data = read(m, 1, 'Triangle', 1, 10, 'OutputFormat', 'timeseries')

%% Output Data as Vectors
% Output from the |read| command can also be specified as vectors. When outputting
% data as a vector, only a single channel may be read at a time.
[data, time] = read(m, 1, 'Triangle', 1, 10, 'OutputFormat', 'vector')

%% Read an Entire Channel Group
% To quickly read the data from an entire channel group in a single call,
% no additional arguments are specified to the |read| command.
data = read(m, 1, m.ChannelNames{1});
