Launching the Target Computer

It is sufficient to boot the pre-installed Target Computer. The Target real-time environment will be launched automatically after booting the system.

If the system is in demo mode, this means if you did not activate the target with your license key before (see License Management),

you have to select demo mode in the following screen to start the real-time environment.

 

 

If you have a license.dat for the target on your usb-stick you can select load license.dat to activate the target at this point.

 

Additional Target Commands

Log in to the Target Computer as user 'root'. The MDI server and SCALE-RT runtime environment can be controlled via the Linux-Terminal.

 

Terminal commands.

 

rcprosys restart                Restart the prototyping environment

 

prosys_hwcfg        Automatic measurement hardware configuration. Installed measurement hardware will be searched and configured.

 

 

 

 

Model autostart

All models with an "autostart" file located in the model's installation folder are started on system startup.

 

How to create an "autostart" file:

 

1.Open a remote shell to the real-time target (see SCALE-RT Suite - Advanced Functions).
2.Change to the model directory: 'cd /home/model/MODxxx' (where xxx is the ID of the model e.g. MOD001)
3.Create an empty "autostart" file: 'touch autostart'

 

On the next system boot all model(s) marked with the "autostart" file in their folder will be automatically started.
