Is the "Simulink Coder Support Package for VEX EDR V5 Robot Brain" able to be installed along with the "ARM Cortex-M Support from Embedded Coder" in 2018b?

I have tried to install both support packages for the VEX cortex and VEX V5 brain in the same installation of Matlab 2018b. I am only able to install one or the other package. I receive an unspecified error upon installation of the second package, whichever it happens to be.

Can the two different support packages be installed together? We are transitioning to V5, but will still be using the cortex hardware for some time to come.

Hi Ken ,

In the MATLAB command window,execute

>> matlabshared.supportpkg.getInstalled

Output :

Name Version Base Product

----------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- --------------

Simulink Coder Support Package for VEX EDR V5 Robot Brain 18.2.2 Simulink Coder

Simulink Coder Support Package for ARM Cortex-based VEX Microcontroller 18.2.2 Simulink Coder

18.2.2 is the latest version of the support package.You should be able to install both the support packages on the same machine.
