Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation with Simulink Real-Time
The hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation workflow shows you how to use Simulink® Real-Time™ to download and execute a real-time application that you generate from your Simscape™ model. You can also check for simulation overruns and change run-time parameters for your plant-based application on a real-time target using Simulink Real-Time.
