New features and changes introduced in this version are:
There are four new Simulink blocks that can send and receive data over TCP/IP and UDP in Simulink.
TCP/IP Receive — Receive data over a TCP/IP network from a specified remote machine.
TCP/IP Send — Send data over a TCP/IP network to a specified remote machine.
UDP Receive — Receive data over an UDP network from a specified remote machine.
UDP Send — Send data over an UDP network to a specified remote machine.
Additional instrument drivers are now available for Agilent, LeCroy®, Tabor, and Tektronix® instruments.
Support for Keithley® version 8.3 GPIB drivers is updated.
Additional GPIB status information is now provided with the spoll function.
The following functions are obsolete as of this release. Any attempt to use these functions now results in an error message.
Obsolete Function Name | New Function Name |
|---|---|
freeserial | |
instrcomm | |
instrcreate |
In the previous release, freeserial was nonoperational and generated a warning. Now any call to this function generates an error.
In previous releases, instrcomm and instrcreate opened their own graphical user interfaces. The functionality of these interfaces is available in the tmtool GUI.
The fwritef and the fprintf functions will return an error message if the flowcontrol property is set to hardware and a hardware connection is not detected. Previously, MATLAB software would fail to respond while it waited for the connection.
In the previous release, MATLAB software would become unresponsive if the flowcontrol property was set to hardware and a hardware connection was not detected. The fwrite and the fprintf functions will now return an error message.
