I'm still new to Veristand and even newer to Matlab/Simulink...at least their more recent incarnations. Does anyone know of a good "Simulink for dummies" resource online? Especially geared for someone who will be needing to build the code in such a way that Veristand can make use of it. I hesitate to ask for example code, as I frown on that, but I'm really just interested in the methodology, not the code itself.

Thanks for the great info. This is exactly what I need to get going. One point of clarification, though. One of your links states that MSVC++ is required to build a model from C to DLL. The other link implies that MEX can compile the code, if no other supported compiler is available. Which is it? Will I need MSVC++, or will Matlab/Simulink build the DLL for me?

Hi Dan,
When converting the model DLL you need to run the mex -setup command in order to choose the compiler you wish to compile with. You will need to use one of the listed compilers from the NI VeriStand 2009 ReadMe

Wicked awesome. I have Matlab R2010a, which I assume is not listed as it wasn't out when the readme was written.
Thanks for the support and help!

Hi Dan,
You are correct, MATLAB® 2010A was not available when NI VeriStand 2009 was being developed, therefore it is not officially supported. More so, we have seen issues when using MATLAB 2009b (CAR 204598), so I am pretty 2010A will probably have an issue too. Needless to say we are working on improving NI VeriStand's coverage.

Thanks for the heads up. Is there anyway that I can look at the details of the CAR to see if it will be something I need to look out for when/if it happens?

Hi Dan,
In the NI VeriStand ReadMe you can see a list of active CARs and we post some details. For CAR 204598, VeriStand will fail to import a MATLAB® 2009b model and you will have to cancel the importation. Since MATLAB® 2009b was not listed in the ReadMe as supported, the CAR is more of a report that the model importation will fail and that NI VeriStand will not behave in an expected manner.

Hi JohnnyGroove,
Do you have the CAR or Service Request number for the the issue you report to NI Italy? In the NI VeriStand 2009 f1 Patch only three issues were apparently fixed and it does not appear that model initialization was addressed.
