xPC Target Jumpstart Service

xPC Target Jumpstart Service is a three-day engagement that introduces the tools and techniques for prototyping, testing, and deploying Simulink models in real-time systems using xPC Target. It is intended for engineers developing and testing embedded, real-time applications in a wide variety of industries. By the end of the engagement, you will be able to implement Simulink models in a rapid prototyping or hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environment using standard PC hardware, execute models in real time, and develop key components of a real-time system.

The consultants will provide target hardware, sample models, and supporting materials.
