PC-based Offline Simulation

For early verification, ControlDesk Next Generation can directly access virtual ECUs and MathWorks Simulink models simulated with the dSPACE Offline Simulator. This C-codebased simulation lets you perform virtual calibration and measurement tasks directly on Windows PCs. The virtual ECUs (developed with SystemDesk) are handled by ControlDesk Next Generation just like real ECUs: They are described by ASAM A2L files and can be accessed via XCP on Ethernet (with the ECU Interface Module). You can also use the same mechanism to simulate Simulink models for which C code has been created with MathWorks Simulink Coder™ (formerly Real-Time Workshop^®).

 

NEW: There is an additional functionality to automatically generate TRC files that give Simulink models the same handling on dSPACE real-time platforms and on the dSPACE Offline Simulator. Offline-simulated plant models can be accessed via TRC file with the ControlDesk Next Generation – Basic Version.
