MATLAB: Code generation of TCP/IP block

Instrument Control Toolboxsimulinktcp/ip

Hi, I am using Simulink to simualte turning on/off leds on a hardware board. I am using the TCP/IP block provided by instrument control toolbox to communicate data between the Simulink block and the board. So my Simulink model is the client. I want to generate C code of the model but the generated code doesn't include the TCP/IP block. Do you guys have any ideas why I got this problem? Do you know how can I implement my own TCP/IP block that might be generated to c code? Thanks for helping.

The TCP/IP block is probably not supported for code-generation, which is why you don't see it in the generated code (do you see any warning in the MATLAB command window about it?)
If you know how to implement the TCP/IP communication in C code, you can use the Legacy Code Tool to generate an S-function and TLC-file (which is needed for code-generation) that will act as your custom block.
