EV3 SImulink external mode fails

Hello,

I am trying to control my Lego ev3 using Simulink. When I use Deploy to Hardware, it works perfectly. But this way, I cannot monitor my signals through my scopes, so I am trying to press "Run" instead, which gives me the following error:

Error occurred while executing External Mode MEX-file 'ext_comm': Failed to connect to the target. Possible reasons for the failure: a) The target is not switched on. b) The target is not connected to your host machine. c) The application for the model is not running on the target. You might have clicked the Stop button. If the Run button is not dimmed, click it. Otherwise, click the Build button, which downloads and runs your application on the target.

Caused by: An error occurred attempting to open an rtIOStream. More detail may be reported in the MATLAB command window

The simulation mode is set to external. Any idea why this would happen and how can I fix it? My main purpose it to able to monitor my model's states, while I am running my simulink code on the hardware.

Thank you a lot, George
