Project Execution

This section discusses about project code execution on target hardware. The process of deploying project code on target hardware is same as followed in project simulation on native hardware. Following points shall be noted additionally during this process

·         There is no concept of simulation panel when executing on target hardware. As such simulation panel blocks, GPIO blocks and blocks that are specific to native hardware are not supported.

·         For interfacing with field IOs during execution, blocks supporting target hardware such as ‘TargetHw IO’ (instead of GPIO on native hardware) shall be used.

·         After compilation, the generated binary image has to be uploaded to target hardware through a USB port where hardware is connected. These USB ports are typically emulated as serial ports (COM ports). Accordingly, connected COM port shall be specified during simulation parameters setup before initiating project compilation/execution.
