Stream Output
Write formatted ASCII data to communication channel
Libraries:
Simulink Desktop Real-Time
Description
The Stream Output block writes formatted ASCII data to a port or file. After you have added a Stream Output block to your model, double-click the Stream Output block to open the Block Parameters: Stream Output dialog box.
The driver must be one of:
Standard Devices > File
Standard Devices > Serial Port
Standard Devices > TCP Protocol
Standard Devices > UDP Protocol
When you install a UDP device, enter port addresses in decimal format in the Standard Devices UDP Protocol dialog box.
Any serial output port can send data with sample rates up to 500 Hz. To enable a faster sample rate of up to 10 kHz for some output serial ports, click Install new board, select Standard Devices > Serial Port, and select Direct port access.
The block does not support this option with all types of serial output hardware.
Examples
Stream Input/Output
Transfer data through TCP communication protocol by using ASCII encoding.
Ports
Input
Input Data — Data to write to communication channel
numeric vector | string
Data values that are sent to the communication channel as ASCII data, encoded according to Format string.
Output
Data Ready — Data ready port (optional)
1
| 0
This port signals 1
if the block is ready
to accept new data and 0
otherwise.
Dependency
When you select Show “Data Ready” port, this port is visible.
Data Error — Data error port (optional)
1
| 0
This port signals 1
if a data error occurs
and 0
otherwise.
Dependency
When you select Show “Data Error” port, this port is visible.
Missed Ticks — Missed tick count (optional)
double
In Connected IO mode, returns the number of timer ticks that your model lags behind the real-time kernel. When the model lags by more than Maximum missed ticks, the software reports an error and simulation stops.
Dependency
When you select Show “Missed Ticks” port, this port is visible.
Data Types: double
Parameters
Install new board — Register a board
< no board selected >
(default)
When you click Install new board, the software displays a list of manufacturers of supported boards. When you select a manufacturer, the software displays a list of boards available from that manufacturer. When you select a board, the software adds the board to the list of registered boards and makes that board the current board.
By default, the initial selection in the list of registered boards is <
no board selected >
.
For more information about driver support for I/O boards, see Hardware Support from Simulink Desktop Real-Time.
Dependency
When you select a board in the list of registered boards, the Delete current board and Board setup buttons are available.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
DrvName |
Delete current board — Delete the current board
(button)
To delete the current board, click this button. The initial
selection of the list of registered boards changes to <
no board selected >
.
Dependency
To activate this parameter, select a board in the list of registered boards.
When you delete the current board, the Delete current board and Board setup buttons are no longer available.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
DrvName |
Board setup — Set up the board
(button)
To set up the board, click this button.
A board-specific dialog box opens to set up the board. For more information, see the board manufacturer documentation.
Dependency
To activate this parameter, select a board in the list of registered boards.
To deactivate this parameter, click Delete current board.

Block Parameter:
DrvAddress |
Block Parameter:

Sample time — Sample time of block
0.1
(default) | double
Enter a value, in seconds, that represents how frequently you want the block to execute and interact with the I/O hardware. The block synchronizes your model with the real-time clock at this sample rate.
If you are using a fixed-step solver, enter the value that you entered as the Fixed step size configuration parameter or an integer multiple of that value.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
SampleTime |
Maximum missed ticks — Number of timer ticks by which your model can trail the kernel
10
(default) | integer
In Connected IO mode, enter the number of timer ticks that your model can lag behind the real-time kernel. When the model lags behind by this number or fewer timer ticks, the software assumes that the lag is temporary. It allows the model to catch up, even if the model misses some ticks. When the model lags by more than this number, the software reports an error and simulation stops.
In Run in Kernel mode, the software ignores this value.
Programmatic Use
Block
Parameter:
MaxMissedTicks |
Show “Missed Ticks” port — Send number of missed ticks to port Missed Ticks
'off'
(default) | 'on'
In Connected IO mode, select this check box to send the number of missed
ticks to output port Missed Ticks
.
In Run in Kernel mode, the Missed Ticks
port is
zero.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
ShowMissedTicks |
Yield CPU when waiting — Yield CPU while kernel waits for hardware
'off'
(default) | 'on'
In Connected IO mode, select this check box to grant other programs more CPU time while the kernel waits for a response from the hardware.
In Run in Kernel mode, the software ignores this value.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
YieldWhenWaiting |
Input port sizes — Specify number and width of ports
1
(default) | vector
Enter a port width, or vector of port widths. The number of elements
determines the number of input ports. Each port has the width specified by
the corresponding element. For example, specifying
[3,1,2]
indicates that the block has three input
ports: a vector of width 3
, a scalar, and a vector of
width 2
, for a total of six elements. You specify only
the widths.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
PortSizes |
Format string — Format of data items being written to the stream
'%g'
(default) | character vector
Enter a specification in the same format used by C library I/O routines
like printf
. The format string describes the data to be
sent. The format string must have the same number of specifiers as the sum
of the elements of Input port sizes. If the
specifier is %s
or %c
for string, the
created input port of type string only accepts string signals. The
Input port sizes
parameter value for this input port
must be "1"
, because strings can only be scalars.
For example, assume that Input port sizes is
[3,1,2]
. Then a Format string of
'%d %d %d %f %d %d'
outputs ASCII
representing:
Three integers from the vector on the first input port
One double from the scalar on the input second port
Two integers from the vector on the third input port
If the data type specified in the Format string for a value differs from the type of the actual value, type conversion occurs. Converted data that conforms to the Format string is output as ASCII to the device.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
FormatString |
Show “Data Ready” port — Add port Data Ready
that signals 1
when the block can accept new data
'off'
(default) | 'on'
When you select this check box, the block makes visible the
output port Data Ready
. This output port signals 1
when
the block is ready to accept new data and otherwise signals 0
.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
ShowReady |
Show “Data Error” port — Add port Data Error
that signals 1
if error occurs
'off'
(default) | 'on'
When you select this check box, the block makes visible the
output port Data Error
. This port signals 1
when
a data error occurs and 0
otherwise.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
ShowError |
Initial string — Data to send when simulation begins
character vector
Optional. Enter a character vector. When simulation begins, send the specified data before the other data that is sent during simulation.
The character vector can contain anything. You can use it to initialize a device. It is sent literally as specified, without reference to Format string.
Programmatic Use
Block Parameter:
InitialValue |
Final string — Data to send when simulation ends
character vector
Optional. Enter a character vector. When simulation ends, after the other data that is sent during simulation, send the specified data.
The character vector can contain anything. You can use it to shut down a device. It is sent literally as specified, without reference to Format string
