This is a standard MATPOWER change table, as described in Section 9.3.5 of the
MATPOWER User’s Manual
<http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/docs/MATPOWER-manual-6.0.pdf>. The
columns index constants are defined in idx_ct.m
<http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/docs/ref/matpower6.0/idx_ct.html> While
you can set the values in these tables directly in the input MOST Data struct
mdi, at mdi.tstep(t).OpCondSched(j).tab, the preferred method is to define
profiles which are then used by loadmd()
<http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/docs/ref/matpower6.0/most/loadmd.html>
to construct mdi with the appropriate change tables in OpCondSched.tab.
Profiles are described in Section 5.1.6 of the MOST User’s Manual
<http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/docs/MOST-manual-1.0.pdf>.
