I/O boards which are not listed in the SCALE-RT HW-Interface list can also be used.
However COSATEQ does not provide any support for these I/O boards.
The following steps are needed to add a COMEDI supported I/O board to SCALE-RT:
| 1. | Insert a new I/O board description entry in the file /home/model/scripts/hwtab.conf. The hwtab.conf entries consist of: |
| 1.1. | Board-Name (a user defined unique name) |
| 1.2. | Vendor-ID (the PCI Vendor ID can be found using the command "lspci") |
| 1.3. | Device-ID (the PCI Device ID of the I/O board can be found using the command "lspci") |
| 1.4. | Driver (the name of the driver used for this I/O board) |
| 1.5. | Bustype (the bus type of the I/O board e.g. PCI) |
| 1.6. | Calibtype (the calibration type "none", "soft" or "hard") |
| 2. | Normally the COMEDI board name is identical with the name of the driver.
If the COMEDI board name differs from the driver name an alias name can be configured in /home/model/scripts/alias.conf.
The alias will be assigned to the (user defined) Board-Name defined in /home/model/scripts/hwtab.conf. |
| 3. | Run the hardware auto detection on the real-time target using the "prosys_hwcfg" command.
|
| 4. | Finally the board has to be integrated in the Simulation Tool. |
| 4.1. | For MATLAB®/Simulink® a S-Function and Simulink® block has to be created. |
| 4.2. | For Scilab®/Scicos® the I/O board has to be added in the list of supported boards in the file "<ScilLab_Installation_Directory>\macros\SCALE_RT\scale_rt_blocks\RT_ScaleFktLib.c" |
| 4.3. | For SimulationX® see the SimulationX® documentation. |
