Overview
The National Instruments LabVIEW Simulation Interface
Toolkit gives control system design and test engineers a link between NI LabVIEW
and The MathWorks, Inc. Simulink® software. With the NI LabVIEW Simulation
Interface Toolkit, you can easily build custom LabVIEW user interfaces to view
and control your simulation model during run time. This toolkit also provides a
plug-in for The MathWorks, Inc. Real-Time Workshop® to import your models
created in the Simulink environment into LabVIEW allowing you to connect your
model to the real world through a variety of real-time I/O platforms (requires
LabVIEW Real-Time). With these capabilities, you can easily take your models
from software verification to real-world prototyping and hardware-in-the-loop
simulation.

Verify Models with a LabVIEW User Interface
The NI LabVIEW
Simulation Interface Toolkit enables you to build custom user interfaces for
models created in the Simulink environment. The SIT Connection Manager offers a
configuration-based utility to connect a custom LabVIEW user interface to your
models, eliminating the need for any programming knowledge. The custom user
interface enables you to easily simulate, analyze, and verify your control model
on a desktop PC. Creating a custom user interfaces for your simulation model is
accomplished in four steps:

Step 1. The LabVIEW Simulation Interface
Toolkit adds a SignalProbe block to the Simulink environment. Place the
SignalProbe in the top level of your model to enable LabVIEW to communicate with
your model while it is running in the Simulink environment.
Step 2. Create a
LabVIEW user interface by placing controls and indicators on a LabVIEW front
panel.
Step 3. Use the SIT Connection Manager to specify the links between
the LabVIEW user interface and your model.
Step 4. Start your simulation in
the Simulink environment by selecting run in your LabVIEW user
interface.

Deploying Models to Real-Time Hardware
The LabVIEW
Simulation Interface Toolkit also provides a plug-in for The MathWorks, Inc.
Real-Time Workshop® software that helps facilitate the importation of your
models into LabVIEW. When used with LabVIEW Real-Time, this capability allows
you to connect your model to the real world through a variety of real-time I/O
platforms and still provides the user interface capabilities utilized in the
verification of the model. The LabVIEW environment allows you to select the
appropriate real-time platform based on the performance, portability, and
durability requirements of your application.

The LabVIEW Simulation
Interface Toolkit makes it easy to connect your models to a combination of
analog, digital, and protocol-based I/O devices using the SIT Connection
Manager. In addition to the user interface and I/O configuration, this utility
also enables you to easily add stimulus to your application using multichannel
data profiles. You also can specify multirate data logging on a per-channel
basis to optimize file size and application performance. All of these
capabilities can be configured without programming; however, you can further
customize your configurations and add more features using LabVIEW graphical
programming.
