xPC Target Data Logging Methodologies

Describes several methods available to log and access signal data with xPC Target.

Description

Data logging (signal logging) with xPC Target is the process of acquiring signal data on the target PC as the model executes in real-time. At the end of the run, the data can be transferred to the host PC for plotting, analysis, and/or archiving. Three common methods for data logging with xPC Target are described. Example models demonstrating each method are also provided.

• Required Products: Simulink; xPC Target; Real-Time Workshop
• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7.5 (R2007b)
• Other requirements: An xPC Target supported compiler. See http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/release2007b/
