Product Description
Simulink PLC Coder Generate IEC 61131 structured text for PLCs
and PACs
Simulink PLC Coder

Simulink PLC Coder generates hardware-independent IEC 61131 structured
text from Simulink models, Stateflow charts, and Embedded MATLAB
functions. The structured text is generated in PLCopen and other file formats
supported by widely used integrated development environments (IDEs).
As a result, you can compile and deploy your application to numerous
programmable logic controller (PLC) and programmable automation
controller (PAC) devices.
Simulink PLC Coder generates test benches that help you verify the
structured text using PLC and PAC IDEs and simulation tools.
Key Features
• Automatic generation of IEC 61131-3 structured text
• Simulink support, including reusable subsystems, PID controller blocks,
and lookup tables
• Embedded MATLAB support, including if-else statements, loop constructs,
and math operations
• Support for multiple data types, including Boolean, integer, enumerated,
and floating-point, as well as vectors, matrices, buses, and tunable
parameters
• IDE support, including B&R Automation Studio®, PLCopen, Rockwell
Automation® RSLogix™ 5000, and Smart Software Solutions CoDeSys
• Test-bench creation

Genetic Algorithm and Direct Search Toolbox

As of R2010a, Genetic Algorithm and Direct Search Toolbox is renamed
Global Optimization Toolbox.
Signal Processing Blockset

As of R2010a, Signal Processing Blockset no longer requires Simulink. Most
algorithms and tools are now available as System objects for use directly in
MATLAB. Simulink continues to be required for using blocks in the blockset.
Video and Image Processing Blockset

Installation and Activation
New Paths Through the Installation and Activation

Process
If you have a File Installation Key (to determine the products you want to
install), you can now use either the Install using the Internet option or the
Install without using the Internet option.
Similarly, you can now specify your License File during activation (to
determine which products you are licensed to run), whether you choose
the Activate automatically using the Internet option or the Activate
manually without using the Internet option.
