Simulink Real-Time Interfaces to the Real-Time Application
To control the real-time application on the target computer, there are a number of available interfaces. Each interface provides different types of support for controlling and interacting with the real-time application.
Interface to Real-Time Application | More Information |
|---|---|
Simulink Editor — The Real-Time tab lets you operate the basic and more advanced Simulink® Real-Time™ workflows. Working from left-to-right on this tab, you can select and connect to a target computer, and then use the one-click operation of the Run on Target button to build, deploy, and run the real-time application. For more advanced workflows such as parameter tuning, the Signal Table selection in the Prepare section of this tab lets you interact with the real-time application when simulating in external mode. | Build and Download Real-Time Application by Using Run on Target |
Simulink Real-Time Explorer — The explorer lets you load the real-time application onto the target computer and start the application. For more advanced workflows such as parameter tuning, on the Signals tab and Parameters tab, you can interact with the real-time application. The Simulink Real-Time Explorer provides a hierarchical display of application signals. You can select signals to stream to the Simulation Data Inspector for results visualization. | Execute Real-Time Application in Simulink External Mode by Using Step-by-Step Commands |
Use MATLAB commands — Simulink Real-Time provides a selection of MATLAB functions for deploying and controlling real-time applications. This command interface supports developing MATLAB scripts for frequently used operations and access to operations that are not available from the Simulink Editor Real-Time tab or from the Simulink Real-Time Explorer. |
