Run-Time Data Collection
External mode logging uses specific code that Simulink®
PLC Coder™ generates. External mode logging can save system states,
outputs, and simulation time at each model execution time step. The data
is written to a MAT-file, named (by default)
model.mat, where model is the
name of your model. You can collect run-time data for the variables in
the MAT-file by running the generated code, which contains the logging
function in your target IDE.
Functions
plcdispextmodedata | Display the external mode logging data |
plcrunextmode | Run external mode visualization |
Topics
- External Mode Logging
Collect and visualize the output of the generated code as executed in the target PLC IDE by using external mode logging.
Featured Examples
Run-Time Data Collection by Using External Mode Logging
Generate code by using external mode logging. Download the generated code with the external mode logging function to the target Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and collect run-time data. Visualize and monitor the collected run-time data by using Simulation Data Inspector and an Open Platform Communications (OPC) server.
