MATLAB: How to run PIL (Processor-in-the-Loop) with custom target code

Question

The Embedded Link products provide a convenient way to generate a PIL block from a masked subsystem in a model. However, I would like to know how I could incorporate my own custom target code instead of using the generated code.

Answer 1

Support for custom code with PIL is via integrating the custom code into Simulink and then running PIL as normal.

Some techniques to integrate the custom code into Simulink are:

- Legacy code tool (LCT)

- Hand written S-function

- S-function Builder

This will enable Embedded Link VS to do all the data I/O with the DSP board

as normal.
