Syntax

MATLAB command line

xpctest
xpctest('target_name')
xpctest('-noreboot')
xpctest('noreboot')
xpctest('target_name', 'noreboot')
xpctest('target_name', '-noreboot')

Arguments

'target_name'	Name of target PC to test.
'noreboot'	Only one possible option. Skips the reboot test. Use this option if the target hardware does not support software rebooting. Value is 'noreboot' or '-noreboot'.

Description

xpctest is a series of xPC Target tests to check the correct functioning of the following xPC Target tasks:

• Initiate communication between the host and target computers.

• Reboot the target PC to reset the target environment.

• Build a target application on the host PC.

• Download a target application to the target PC.

• Check communication between the host and target computers using commands.

• Execute a target application.

• Compare the results of a simulation and the target application run.

xpctest('noreboot') or xpctest('-noreboot') skips the reboot test on the default target PC. Use this option if target hardware does not support software rebooting.

xpctest('target_name') runs the tests on the target PC identified by 'target_name'.

xpctest('target_name', 'reboot') or xpctest('target_name', '-reboot') runs the tests on the target PC identified by 'target_name', but skips the reboot test.

Examples

If the target hardware does not support software rebooting, or to skip the reboot test, in the MATLAB window, type

xpctest('-noreboot')

To run xpctest on a specified target PC, for example TargetPC1, type

xpctest('TargetPC1')
