Thorlabs CSS2000 spectrometer infterface with Matlab using NI VISA

I am trying to automate the Thorlabs CSS2000 series spectrometer using Matlab. VISA was provided with the software, and below is the code I am using to interface it. The problem is that matlab does not have the .mdd file for this particular spectrometer. Is there any way I can get/create it? I doubt using midedit will work.
thanks
% Create a VISA-USB object. interfaceObj = instrfind('Type', 'visa-usb', 'RsrcName', 'USB0::0x0699::0x0401::C001309::0::INSTR', 'Tag', '');
% Create the VISA-USB object if it does not exist % otherwise use the object that was found. if isempty(interfaceObj) interfaceObj = visa('NI', 'USB0::0x0699::0x0401::C001309::0::INSTR'); else fclose(interfaceObj); interfaceObj = interfaceObj(1); end
% Create a device object. deviceObj = icdevice('<_how do I create this file?_>.mdd', interfaceObj); ==<
% Connect device object to hardware. connect(deviceObj);
