Simulink2ARM7

Overview

This page describes the user interaction with the SimulinkTarget tool. Every step needed in order to get from Simulink Model to the Executable file is described in this page. The first step before getting the model to run in the ARM7 Board is to generate the code that implements the Simulink Model. This process is described here Simulink settings for generating code

Create (or load) a project configuration file

The SimulinkTarget tool creates a configuration file where all the decisions made during the conversion process are saved. Doing so enables the user to load the configuration file and avoids the overhead of going through all of the steps every time new code is generated. The first step is to either load or create a configuration file.

After loading/creating a configuration file, new tabs are enabled and the user may proceed to the next steps.

As the user can note, the tab Simulink Model has been enabled and is intuitively the next step to be taken.

Load the simulink model

Load the RTW generated code

Select the base stub code used

Define CAN binding and marshaling

Define output folder and generate code

Optionally compile the generated code
