Purpose Open an xPC Target Spy window on the host PC
Syntax MATLAB Command Line
xpctargetspy
Description This graphical user interface (GUI) allows you to upload displayed data from
the target PC.
The behavior of this function depends on the value for the environment
property TargetScope.
•If TargetScope is enabled, a single graphics screen is uploaded. The screen is
not continually updated because of a higher data volume when a target
graphics card is in VGA mode.
To update the host screen with another target screen, move the pointer into
the Spy window and left-click.
•If TargetScope is disabled, text output is continuously transferred every
second to the host and displayed in the window.
Examples To open the Target Spy window, in the MATLAB window, type
xpctargetspy
