Learn more about xPC Target   

Introduction

The xPC Target Embedded Option software allows you to boot the xPC Target kernel from a 3.5-inch disk drive and other devices, including a flash disk or a hard disk drive. By using the xPC Target Embedded Option software, you can configure a target PC to automatically start execution of your embedded application for continuous operation each time the system is booted. You can use this capability to deploy your own real-time applications on target PC hardware. You can also control the target application using custom GUIs or the Web browser interface when deploying the application with the xPC Target Embedded Option software. You can deploy GUIs that you develop with the xPC Target API and the COM API on any host Microsoft® Windows® system without MATLAB software.

The xPC Target Embedded Option software has Standalone mode. This mode bundles the kernel and target application into one entity that you can copy onto a device such as the target PC hard drive. This mode allows the target PC to run as a stand-alone PC with the target application already loaded. You can control the real-time application with the command-line interface using a keyboard on the target PC.

This feature uses the xPC Target API with any programming environment, or the xPC Target COM API with any programming environment, such as Visual Basic®, that can use COM objects. See the xPC Target API Guide for further information.
