Launch Hardware Setup

Hardware boards and devices supported by MathWorks® require additional configuration and setup procedure to connect to MATLAB® and Simulink®. Each support package provides a hardware setup process that guides you through registering, configuring, and connecting to your hardware board.

  1. If the support package is already installed, you can start the hardware setup by opening the Add-Ons panel. To open the Add-Ons panel, click the Add-Ons icon on the left sidebar.

  2. In the Add-Ons panel, click the Options options button next to the installed support package, and click Setup to start the hardware setup process.

  3. The Hardware Setup window provides instructions for configuring the support package to work with your hardware.

    Follow the instructions on each page of the Hardware Setup window. When the hardware setup process completes, you can open the examples to familiarize yourself with the product and its features.

  4. Manually download and install the listed third-party software using the installation links provided in the hardware setup screen. When you click on the installation link, you will be redirected to Qualcomm login page.

    Login to the page and come back to the above window. Click on the installation link again to download and install Qualcomm Hexagon SDK.

  5. Click Next to validate.

  6. In the validate Qualcomm Hexagon SDK Installation Path window, click Browse and locate the path of the Hexagon_SDK folder.

  7. Click Validate and complete the validation.

  8. Click Next to configure Install Android Debug Bridge (ADB). This step is optional and can be skipped if you do not want to configure the ADB.

  9. Once you complete the hardware setup for Qualcomm Hexagon, click Finish.

    Note

    If you re-install the support package with a different Hexagon SDK version, other than the already registered Hexagon SDK version, restart MATLAB after completing the hardware setup process (before proceeding with building the model).
