External Mode


In external mode, the Real-Time Workshop® software establishes a communications link between a model running in the Simulink® environment and code executing on a target system. More details on external mode are provided elsewhere in this documentation: Creating an External Mode Communication Channel contains advanced information for those who want to implement their own external mode communications layer. You want to read it to gain increased insight into the architecture and code structure of external mode communications. In addition, Targeting the Wind River Systems Tornado® Environment for Real-Time Applications discusses the use of external mode in the Wind River Systems VxWorks® Tornado® environment.
