Real-Time Windows Target

Installation and Configuration

The Real-Time Windows Target requires the installation of MATLAB, Simulink, Real-Time Workshop, a C compiler, and the Real-Time Windows Target kernel. Also, make sure you set your working directory outside of the MATLAB root directory.

This chapter includes the following sections:

• System Requirements -- Use any PC compatible computer with MATLAB, Simulink, Real-Time Workshop, the Real-Time Windows Target, and a C compiler
• Real-Time Windows Target -- Install from a CD or download from the Web
• Initial Working Directory -- Select a directory outside of the MATLAB root directory
• Third Party C Compiler -- Install Microsoft Visual C/C++ or Watcom C/C++ to convert the C code from Real-Time Workshop to a real-time application
• Real-Time Windows Target Kernel -- Install the kernel after installing the Real-Time Windows Target
• Testing the Installation -- Use the Simulink model rtvdp.mdl to test the build process and a real-time application
