Create project
At this point it is important to have the complete toolchain installed.
Create a Simulink Project
To start creating your software in Simulink, the first step is to create a new project.
- Select tab Home
- Select New
- Click Simulink Model
- Create a project by clicking GOcontroll-Simulink-Project
- Point to your project folder (E.g. your repository) to store your new project in.
- Click Ok
Your new project is now generated. Next step is to add a template Simulink model.
Create a Simulink Model
- Select tab Home
- Select New
- Click Simulink Model
- Now you can create a template model (Mandatory) by clicking GOcontroll Linux
- Your model is being created.
Before you can build your model, it is important to save the model. Otherwise the Simulink project will not find any reference to the Simulink model.
- In the model click on Save
- A pop up wil open. Type a model name and click Save
Now you are ready to compile/build your project for the first time. To build your project, you first need to open the Embedded Coder perspective of the Simulink environment.
- Navigate to the tab APPS
- Click on Embedded Coder
A new tab called C CODE is added. Simply clicking the Build button wil start a new software build of your model.
The diagnostic viewer will provide some feedback about the build process. Depending on your machine and the model, a build can take some time. After a succesfull build, the output will be as follow.
