Before you begin working, you need to install the product on your computer.
Fixed-Point Toolbox software uses the same installation procedure as the MATLAB toolboxes. See the MATLAB installation documentation for instructions.
Installing the documentation is part of the installation process:
Installation from a DVD — Start the MathWorks® installer. When prompted, select the Product check boxes for the products you want to install. The documentation is installed along with the products.
Installation from a Web download — If you update the Fixed-Point Toolbox software using a Web download and you want to view the documentation with the MATLAB Help browser, you must install the documentation on your hard drive.
Download the files from the Web. Then, start the installer, and select the Product check boxes for the products you want to install. The documentation is installed along with the products.
The Fixed-Point Toolbox product is part of a family of MathWorks products. To use the toolbox, you must also have a MATLAB license. For more information about Fixed-Point Toolbox system and product requirements, see System Requirements on the MathWorks Web site.
Note You can accelerate Fixed-Point Toolbox software when you have a compiler installed on your machine. For the current list of supported compilers, see Supported and Compatible Compilers on the MathWorks Web site. To setup or modify your compiler configuration, run mex -setup at the MATLAB command line. |
MathWorks provides several products that are relevant to the kinds of tasks you can perform with Fixed-Point Toolbox software.
See Related Products on the MathWorks Web site for more information.
You can use fi objects with the DataType property set to double without a Fixed-Point Toolbox ™ license when you set the fipref LoggingMode property to off. A Fixed-Point Toolbox license is checked out when you
Use any fi object with any DataType other than double.
Create any fi object with the fipref LoggingMode property set to on, including fi objects with DataType double.
Load a MAT-file that contains any fi object with the DataType property set to single, boolean, ScaledDouble, or Fixed.
You can prevent the checkout of a Fixed-Point Toolbox™ license when working with Fixed-Point Toolbox™ code by setting the fipref DataTypeOverride property to TrueDoubles.
