speedgoat.setTargetAuthentication

speedgoat.setTargetAuthentication — Authenticate your Speedgoat real-time target machine

Description

This Speedgoat API function starts the step-by-step instruction to authenticate your Speedgoat real-time target machine.

It must be used if you have already run the speedgoat.getTargetAuthentication function and have received the serial file from Speedgoat Support. When you are ready to install the serial file, simply run this function and follow the instructions displayed in your MATLAB Command Window.

Examples

Set the serial file on the default target machine:

speedgoat.setTargetAuthentication

Set the serial file on a specified target machine using the target name (e.g. 'TargetPC1'):

speedgoat.setTargetAuthentication('TargetName', 'TargetPC1')

Set the serial file on a specified target machine using the target object (e.g. tg):

speedgoat.setTargetAuthentication('TargetObject', tg)

Input Arguments

Name-Value Pair Arguments: 'TargetName' - Target machine name [character vector]. The name of the target machine you want to use.

'TargetObject' - Target object [target object]. The target object of the target machine you want to use.

Notes

This function requires an Ethernet connection to your Speedgoat real-time target machine. If no 'TargetObject' or 'TargetName' argument is given to the function, the default target is used. Moreover, the 'TargetObject' argument takes precedence: if both arguments are supplied, 'TargetName' will therefore be ignored.
