dSPACE SC-KNOCK 4/1 PlugIn July 2006 Last-Minute Information ====================================================================== Copyright (c) 2006 dSPACE GmbH, Germany Contents: 1. General 2. New Features introduced by this PlugIn 3. Limitations 4. Installing the Patch ====================================================================== 1. General ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This PlugIn can be installed on an existing Release 5.1 installation with RTIRPCU blockset. 2. New Features introduced by this PlugIn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This PlugIn installs some new RTI blocks for measuring knock signals with the SC-KNOCK 4/1 module. 3. Limitations ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Two minor problems were detected after this PlugIn had been released: 1) Between two measurement windows of the SC-KNOCK41 module (Signal KNOCK_MWCTRL) a block of the type RPCU_SCKNOCK41_DATA must at least be executed once. Otherwise the error message RTI: The RapidPro slave application generates an error. (63252) is generated and the program is aborted. 2) If SC-KNOCK41 blocks are used in the model, the simState variable must not be set to 1 (PAUSE). Otherwise the error message RTI: The RapidPro slave application generates an error. (63252) is generated and the program is aborted. Apart from that the documentation contains a minor error: Refer to %DSPACE_ROOT%\Doc\Print\RapidProMPC565IOSubFeatures.pdf, pages 244 and 248. Wrong information: The time between the execution of a RPCU_SCKNOCK41_CTRL block and the start of its measurement window must be at least 500µs. Correct information: Actually this time interval must be at least 700µs. 4. Installation ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To install the PlugIn, you must be logged on as an administrator. Ensure that the active installation referenced by %DSPACE_ROOT% contains Release 5.1 with the RTIRPCU Blockset. To install this patch, simply run RapidProScKnockAddOn2.0.exe. The setup will automatically locate and patch the active dSPACE installation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- End of File
