MATLAB: Can I transmit data from CAN Transmit block on a Vector CAN card to the own hardware in real-time using Vehicle Network Toolbox 1.0 (R2009a)

Question

I would like to use the CAN Transmit block to run a test simulation outputting on my Vector CAN Card to my own hardware. Is it possible to set it up to send the message in real world time and not simulation time? Right now, when I run the simulation, it sends it out super fast as it is running "simulation time". Is there anyway to slow that down?

Answer 1

The ability to run a test simulation with Vehicle Network Toolbox in real time is not available while using just Simulink 7.3 (R2009a).

The user may need to use our rapid prototyping solutions such as Real-Time Windows Target or xPC Target to achieve this.
