Use MATLAB Language to Create and Execute a Real-Time Application

Real-time application configuration and execution

To run your real-time application in a repeatable manner, build, download, configure, and run your real-time application with MATLAB® language. You can:

  • Perform runs interactively or initiate automated runs and test sequences.

  • Tune parameters during, before, or after a run.

  • Instrument (configure-for-streaming-from-application), view, and log signals on the development computer or target computer.
