xPC Target

Creating a Target Application for Stand-Alone

After you select StandAlone as your TargetBoot entry, the xPC Target environment is ready to create completely stand-alone applications using the Real-Time Workshop Build button.

Once the build process has finished, a message is displayed confirming that a stand-alone application has been created. With the StandAlone mode, the download procedure is not automated. The files necessary for creating stand-alone operation are placed in a subdirectory below your working directory. You copy these files to your DOS boot device.

After the build process is complete, files in your subdirectory include

• model.rtb. This image contains the xPC Target kernel and your target application.
• autoexec.bat. This file is automatically invoked by DOS. It then runs xpcboot.com and the *.rtb file.
• xpcboot.com. This file is a static file that is part of xPC Target Embedded Option.
