How can I programmatically set the "analysis mode" of the "machine environment" block in a Simulink model based on SimMechanics using a Matlab script?

I'd like to write a Matlab script that allows me to programmatically set the "analysis mode" of the "machine environment" block in my SimMechanics based model. I'll be switching between the "trimming" and "forward dynamics" settings.

Is this possible to do in an .m file?

Yes, you can use the following syntax:

>> blockName = 'myModel/Machine Environment';

>> type = get_param(blockName,'AnalysisType');

>> set_param(blockName,'AnalysisType','Trimming');
>> set_param(blockName,'AnalysisType','Forward Dynamics')
