Speedgoat IO and Communication Protocols Support from Simulink Real-Time

Connect and interface with your physical system using the Speedgoat I/O and communication protocol support from Simulink Real-Time

Capabilities and Features

Run your real-time Simulink application to your hardware under test with real-time target machines from Speedgoat.

Use Speedgoat to select the right set of I/O modules for your specific requirements. Achieve the smallest possible I/O latencies and quickly access I/O through the driver blocks available from Simulink Real-Time.

To connect to your hardware, Speedgoat I/O modules support a wide range of I/O and communications protocols.

Supported I/O and Protocols

Speedgoat is constantly extending the range of supported I/O and protocols. Please contact Speedgoat if you can't find what you are looking for below. The following I/O and protocols can be integrated in numerous Speedgoat Real-Time target machines.
