FAST S-Function & Code Generation

[Vaggelis.Bezos]

Hi All,

I have the OPENFAST S-function working properly on Simulink and was trying to probe the possibility of using generated code to create a HIL environment for a wind turbine controller.
I am trying to generate code from a model that includes the S-function in order to execute it through PLCnext runtime on PXC controllers.

Every time I try to build I get the error below:

Though the same model runs fine through Simulink producing the desired result.
Am I missing something in terms of code generation and S-function?

Thanks in advance.

Dear @Vaggelis.Bezos,

I’m not familiar with how to interface the OpenFAST S-Function for Simulink through PLCnext runtime on PXC controllers. Hopefully someone else can help.

Hardware in the loop

Hi all, I can easily run the open loop (FAST v8) in Matlab/Simulink but when I run it in the real-time environment in Matlab it gives me these two errors including “LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘FAST_SFunc.obj’”, and “NMAKE : fatal error U1077”. Has anyone encountered such errors? The details of the errors are as follows: LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘FAST_SFunc.obj’ NMAKE : fatal error U1077: ‘“C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\T…

Instructions for Compiling FAST

Dear Jason/Bonnie I have a question re FAST v8 Simulink. I’m trying to re-compile the s-function so to generate c-code into a target processor for Hardware-in-the-loop simulation, using a dSPACE platform (ds1103) which is based on a PowerPC processor. The compilation of the 64 bit FAST_SFunc.c into a MEX function into MATLAB’s workspace was successful (had to do it with Microsoft SDK 7.1 according to the dSPACE manufacturer guidelines). The problem arises when I’m pressing ‘Build Model’ insid…
