Hardware Support from Simulink Desktop Real-Time

Run Simulink models in real-time with I/O devices on your computer

Simulink Desktop Real-Time™ provides a real-time kernel for executing Simulink® models on a laptop or desktop running Windows® or Mac OS X. It includes library blocks that connect to a range of I/O devices. You can create and tune a real-time system for rapid prototyping or hardware-in-the-loop simulation with your computer.

Simulink Desktop Real-Time includes drivers for more than 250 commercial I/O devices, which allow I/O to interact with your running models in real-time on your laptop or desktop running Windows® or Mac OS X. The supported devices cover a range of I/O types, such as analog input and output, digital input and output, encoder input, PWM/frequency output, and communication protocols. Your hardware selections should be based on careful evaluation of the specifications for your application and environment.

Platform and Release Support

Available 64-bit Microsoft® Windows® and 64-bit Mac OS X only.
