2 Targets and Scopes in the MATLAB Interface
2-4
1 In the MATLAB window, type
tg
The current target application properties are uploaded to the host PC, and
MATLAB displays a list of the target object properties with the updated
values.
Note that the target object properties for
TimeLog, StateLog, OutputLog, and
TETLog are not updated at this time.
2 Type
+tg
The Status property changes from stopped to running, and the log
properties change to
Acquiring.
For a list of target object properties with a description, see the target object
function
get (target object) on page 14-37
Setting Target Object Properties from the Host PC
You can change a target object property by using the xPC Target set method
or the dot notation on the host PC.
With xPC Target you can use either a function syntax or an object property
syntax to change the target object properties. The syntax
set(target_object,
property_name, new_property_value)
can be replaced by
target_object.property_name = new_property_value
For example, to change the stop time mode for the target object
tg,
1 In the MATLAB window, type
tg.stoptime = 1000
2 Alternatively, you can type
set(tg, 'stoptime', 1000)
When you change a target object property, the new property value is
downloaded to the target PC. The xPC Target kernel then receives the
information and changes the behavior of the target application.
