Simulink Real-Time - Speedgoat

Description
This block is part of the Speedgoat Serial driver block set for the Speedgoat
Serial modules IO50X and IO581. The Serial Read block reads characters from the I/O
module FIFO in the UART.
It then outputs those characters as the low-order byte of an unsigned 32-bit
integer vector. This output vector is large enough to hold the maximum number of
characters that the FIFO can hold.
Ports
Outputs
-
Count
Amount of received bytes.
Block Parameters
- Module Type
Select the type of your I/O Module installed in your target
machine.
-
Module ID
This ID defines the link to the corresponding Setup block
-
Channel
This parameter specifies the channel from which this block reads the
data.
-
Sample Time
Defines the base sample time at which this driver block gets its sample hit. This
parameter can also be set to -1 for inherited
sample time. The units are in seconds.
-
Flush HW FIFO on startup
Select this check box to flush the FIFO when the device starts
up.
-
Enable Legacy Mode
This checkbox can be used to enable/disable the legacy mode of the
Serial Read block. If this mode is enabled, the Data output contains a
vector where the first element of the vector specifies the number of
data elements in the remainder of the vector.
