Description

This block acts as a bridge between the current model and an RT-LAB Orchestra framework. This block is always required in a Simulink model exchanges data with an RT-LAB framework. Refer to the RT-LAB Orchestra chapter of the RT-LAB user guide for more information about RT-LAB Orchestra.

Parameters

Sample time

Block sample time. Determines the data exchange rate between the current model and an RT-LAB framework.

XML file

Name of the file that contains a description of the signals to be exchanged in the Orchestra co-simulation. Click on the Configure button to start the DDF configurator.

Domain name

Domain name to use in the DDF.

Connection type

Select between local connection or external connection using Reflective Memory cards.

PCI Index

Used with Reflective Memory cards only. If several identical cards are installed in the computer, select the PCI index of the card to be used.

Work in Simulink mode

Enables/Disables the connexion to the RT-LAB Orchestra framework when running the model outside an RT-LAB Orchestra co-simulation.

Inputs

State

Connects(1) / Disconnects(0) the current model to the RT-LAB Orchestra framework.

Outputs

Status

Status of the connection with the RT-LAB Orchestra framework. The value is 0 if there is no External Component connected to the framework, otherwise, the value is 1.
