Standalone Target Computer Operation

Real-time application configuration to be independent of MATLAB®

You can create a real-time application that runs standalone on a target computer, without a development computer running MATLAB. Configure the standalone application so that it starts running when the target computer starts. The application continues for as long as the target computer is operating.

To start and stop the standalone application, tune parameters, and view signal values, use Simulink® Real-Time™ Explorer or use the target computer command-line interface.

Compile App Designer instrument panels that run as a separate executable without MATLAB on a computer compatible with Windows®.

You can provide royalty-free distribution of your standalone real-time application and App Designer instrument panel applications.
