13 Real-Time Workshop Rapid Simulation Target

Building for the Rapid Simulation Target
By specifying the system target file (rsim.tlc)andthetemplatemakefile
(
rsim_default_tmf)ontheReal-TimeWorkshoppageoftheSimulation
Parameters dialog box, you can use the Real-Time Workshop to generate and
build an
rsim executable. This picture shows the dialog box settings for the
rapid simulation target
Figure 13-1: Specifying Target and Make Files for rsim.
After specifying system target and make files as noted above, select any desired
Workspace I/O settings, and press Build. The Real-Time Workshop will
automatically generate C code and build the executable for your host machine
using your host machine C compiler. See “Target Systems and Associated
Support Files” on page 2-9 for additional information on compilers that are
compatible with Simulink and the Real-Time Workshop.
Running a Rapid Simulation
The rapid simulation target lets you run a simulation similar to the generic
real-time target (
grt) provided by the Real-Time Workshop. This simulation
does not use timer interrupts, and therefore is a nonreal-time simulation
environment. The difference between
grt and rsim simulations is that rsim
allows you to change parameter values or input signals at the start of a
simulation without the need to generate code or recompile. The generic
