Connections

Once the driver has been configured as desired and associated with the proper model subsystem, the user will have to connect points in the model to points in the driver by using the designated RT-LAB GUI. This connection panel will show all the driver's and model's connectable points, once the model has been compiled. It is also possible to make connections to LabVIEW panels.
